Maybe we start a rowboat thread. Rowboat = elitist college sport; elitist college sport = elitist + college; both elitism and college relevant to finance.YellowSnow said:This thread really makes me feel bad about myself.
Therefore, within acceptable bounds of discussion.

Problem is that 18 year olds are supposed to have a clue what they want to do. What percentage actually do? Like 5, 10%?

Too early to say. At age (almost) 7 there is the Rain Man like trait - which I have - for useless facts and trivia. But not sure how Maff will end up. Probably will end up a pour history major like me.FireCohen said:@YellowSnow how is lil piss doing these days? Showing signs of promising future or average?

Agree with @FireCohen and @Pitchfork51 ... I would have been nervous if any of my kids were ballz to the wall sure they wanted to do "X" at 18 and then got into some narrow educational pursuit for it.
One of the many reasons I'm a classic well-rounded education at undergrad guy. Travel light, keep your options open, get a good education that will enable you to move in a multitude of directions, and focus on it more toward the end of your undergrad rather than the beginning.
This, of course, assumes you have a safety net. If you need to be making dollars day 1 after graduation, we have to have a different conversation. -
Can translate to many other things. Not useless. Shows intellectual curiosity, which is a prerequisite to success in life. IMO.YellowSnow said:

You lack that, and it's a miserable life in the Tug. No thanks. -
First generation American here. Had to make mula day one. Can’t say how important this piece of paper (degree) is in order to make a decent living assuming you are just an average person.creepycoug said:Agree with @FireCohen and @Pitchfork51 ...

Make his lil ass go to summer school for advance math and stuff. That shit will pay a huge dividend down the road (he will despise you for it). Wish my parents done that to meYellowSnow said:
