Ha I use to love that saying in law school, it was the average persons mantra "A students become professors, B students become judges, C students make money"
It's so quaint and fills you with hope even though the more accurate saying is "A students make money, B students struggle, C students do the Grams"
And fukk being despondent at not doing anything 25.
Every one of my peers is doing fukk all, having an entry level job making 40-60 a year but knowing in their heart of hearts their drifting just like everyone else.
Balls to that. I've spent my 20s weeding out the shyt I don't like and winnowing down to the things I do, so I'm quite alright, now the real work begins.
I think the struggle is really ignoring what your peers are doing.
People in their 20s like to posture, front like everything is alright which wears on you when you begin comparing your paltry income to their slightly more yet paltry income. That's what really gets on my boobamajugs, when someone I know isn't better than me is making more than me and is seemingly more stable. I've been working on that tho
