Almost time for a second car

 

Probably not, Already have one toy, dont think I need another lol

 

You got a job?

 

I have a job at school, not looking around here as I go back to school soon and get my promotion there

lol def not.

Not getting one anytime soon just wishful thinking

 

no, Financial Aid FTMFW!

 

Ha I didn't even do my fafsa for this year. I keep getting emails about it but there's no point. Last year I got $512 of aid.

 

I cant get financial aid

 

Makes sense

 

yeah... i get about $160 every six months after it pays for my classes. but i work full time anyways so doesnt matter to me... free couple tanks of gas!

 

That reminds me that I need to pay my tuition bill this week. Another $5000 poorer.
Or should I buy a diesel powered welder and head to North Dakota...

 

fuck welding. that job would suck after a couple years.

 

Lol I would only do it for a year or 2. My cousin wants me to go weld with him. He is an independent contractor and makes $50/hr plus overtime and all that good shit. I could pile up a couple hundred grand, then go back to school and get a bunch of hookers and blow.

 

the problem is... whats your health insurance like? your kids and wife gonna be taken care of if they need to go to the hospital? how about retirement? you want to retire someday and enjoy your life before youre too old and fat to walk to the fridge?

 

This, think long term. I don't make a killing but my insurance is paid for, for my self I just pay my family, my retirement is awesome, I don't have to pay into social security because of my job. We have FPPA, the long term goals change when you have kids for sure.

 

I like welding but I probably wouldn't choose it as a career. You would wear your body out way too early with all the lifting and stuff. I'll do it recreationally for the rest of my life, but being an engineer is my top priority.

 

The sooner you think about it the better your retirement will be though. Think about all the toys you can have in your later days too.

 

But your kids will have it. I still do extreme sports. I'm not saying dont have fun. I've been on life support, still DH mtn bike, I'm on a white water team, backcountry ski and snow board, ride dirt bikes, hell I rolled my last runner wheeling 2 years ago haha. But I'm putting money away for my daughter.

 

Changing my major when I get back to school

 

To what?
