Question What did YOU want to be growing up?

And did it happen?

I wanted to be an opera singer on Broadway...

Thats not gay at all. I wanted to be an NBA player. My third grade teacher had us write a letter to ourselves about what we wanted to be and kept them until we graduated high school then mailed them to us, I had it all mapped out. Go to UNC, play 3 years for coach smith, then get drafted in the first round.

everyday of my life as a kid, i had a dream of being only one thing, and that was a professional baseball player.. i had it all planned out.. 2nd baseman for the L.A. Dodgers. i ended up being a degenerate gambler posting on a freakin sports gambling forum instead..

talk about a big let down..


i'm sure my parents are really proud of me..

A junkie. Due to that commercial on channel 11.

Unfortunately, no, it didn't happen.

A degenerate gambler or a weatherman, both jobs usually result in being more wrong than right.

I am living the dream baby. And I am not a weatherman.

When I was growing up all I ever wanted to be was my own boss. Not having to work for someone else. I achieved it and it did not satisfy me one bit.

I wanted to be a lawyer and never achieved it, I feel I got bad breaks and nothing went my way when I was young.

Bread I heard you wanted to be a factory worker when you were young, pretty big dreams there.

Money doesn't mean that much. You can be fine with a decent amount. I have reached a financial goal in my life that I never thought would happen. To be honest I was much happier and my life was easier before I reached the financial level I am now.

I think being stressed leads to unhappiness, whatever the cause, financial, emotional, job, family, mental, whatever. If you are at peace and stress free you can be happy with whatever you have, if you're not you will be unhappy no matter what.
