if you can do it, all the power to you. Im just saying that almost all stoners make absolutely nothing useful out of their hobby. Not to say its not fun, just not productive.
Yeah, I'd rather work during the week and be a weekend warrior

Id say a hobby in gardening can certainly lead to a fruitful career. Dont confuse gardening/agriculture with smoking pot.
Good point, but you can't deny that many artists are influenced by psychedelic drug use.

if you keep believing that everything is getting worse for you or that there is no future.
then there is no future and things will keep getting worse.

Then face the music and do something boring that you can make money at quickly.
If you drive yourself, you can make good money in construction, and you don't have to go to school.
I didn't start until I was 23.
I wish I had started at your age, but as it is, I have an office job and I talk on the Shroomery and stay high all the time.

You sound hopeless!
Seriously.
A) How can you not know what you want to do? It's fucking you, dude, not some alien organism inhabiting your body. How can you not know what *you* want?
B) How can you be 20 and stand living with your parents? I would be fucking insane. Don't you want some independence? Does your Mom do your laundry?
C) How did you run out of money at school smoking pot? I smoked myself stupid all through college and never ran out of money. Did you work while you were in school? If not, why not?
D) Just get serious dude. Stop building all these false obstacles for yourself and just *do* shit. I sound like a fucking Nike commercial, but it's really not hard. Stop endlessly thinking and DO. If you're working 40-hours a week and living at home, you can't have any fucking serious bills. You should be able to save enough money in no time to do whatever you want to do. Get out of your comfort zone. Move to some tropical paradise and carve coconuts on the beach, if you want.

I DO NOT want to work in construction.
I have already learned that just by working here for 3 months.
If I had to work construction for the rest of my life I would just kill myself.

D. I know I know your right I make up way to many excuses and I am being pretty pathetic but I just have no willpower to do anything and I have no ideas and I'm just way depressed.

If you just want to sleep on the beach and be a vagrant, it costs however much a plane ticket costs.
But to live reasonably well is going to cost you similar to what it costs in the states.
