Something with the environment. Not like trying to save the earth or anything like that, but working in a national park would be awesome i think. Maybe even a campground. Fucking DEM never calls ne back. I've applied 4 years in a row, anf never a response. Bastards

being a farmer is fucking hard work
i kinda wanna be a science teacher with a garden and some chickens, so i can at least sort of live off the land
if that dont work out i'll probably become an electrician just because I know a lot of people who do that
i don't want a lot of money, i just want enough to be able to buy something if I want it. not like a car of course, but today I spent $500 on backpacking gear and it doesn't really affect me at all. just enough money to eat and splurge once in awhile i guess.

For now random jobs, doesn't really matter what because money can't really satisfy me, however some is needed to get around and it opens many doors to opportunities. (I blow leaves and rake some in the sunshine for now )
I'm going to study chemistry but if that's what I want to do for the rest of my life? Doubtful! I just think a few years of chemistry knowledge will do me good in the long run 
We change ever so often and I don't think i'm the right person to be doing one thing for years on end. Funny to read this thread because earlier on the day I was brainstorming with some from friends about making money 
I'd like to work out a music/visuals/food/educational concept and try to make a buck with that... Or invent something 
You need money to make more money, the money matters forum has definetly sparked my interest in stocks and precious metals, seems like something I could step into because I can loose myself for hours in something 
Another concept I thought about was to start a business over the border in Netherlands and have a small shop selling ethnobotanical (psychoactive plants) and have a legal/semi-legal webshop.
Other then that if I ever get the chance to do something with my life revolving weed then that's a viable option aswell. Lets hope that some sort of legality will follow, I must say i'm quite suprised on how things seem to be going in America, a few years ago I thought about how profitable it would be if I could chip in on the MM/legal MJ market.

i don't ever see myself doing anything really professionally
like i wanna study chemistry but I think i'll just do that as a "on the side" thing..
i doubt you can really get a job in those kind of fields
hell in 2014 i'm planning on basically being homeless the entire year. i wanna travel N and S america with nothing but a backpack knife and my little laptop. hopefully be able to catch some rides and stuff.. we'll see if that ever happens i guess. i'm saving for it now.

Yes you should do chemistry as an on the side thing or if you're happy with doing a lot of shifts and working your way up gradually in one company then that's the way to go! It's big bucks no matter what and i'll probably end up at BASF or any such companies, I applied earlier on the year for process operator but decided to go on with chemistry studies first.
Other then that i've mastered a few languages by now which always offers jobs, I'd like to pick up a few more. The more the better
and yeah pf, you'll never know where you'll get if you really put your mind on something. Those are just brain farts though but who knows 
And that's what I said earlier on the day aswell, the moment I have money i'll probably waste it on travelling and see the world. I'd like to see North and South america aswell but I have my mind set on India first .

Id want to study chem. Not for a job, but for the knowledge itself. If i ever go back to school its purely to expand my understanding and not a quest for more money.

I'll be graduating in 2 semesters with a BS in Aeronautical Science. After that I'll be applying to Officer Training School with the USAF. I'm hoping I'll be able to get a pilot slot. I'm a commercial rated pilot now... so hopefully that will give me a leg up on the competition.

. But unemployed right now.
Going back to school again im sure for something worthless that I cant get a job in
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Off topic but, Your Cicero quote in your sig is wrong. Its not actually his quote. Its from a novel about him, written by Taylor Caldwell.

Yes. I do science. Have been for a long long time.
-------------------- ...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge. It is an indellible experience; it is forever known. I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did. Smith, P. Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27. ...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely. Osmond, H.
