That would put you in a very high percentile in physics. Sadly that really doesn't matter. Many discoveries happen by accident?
William James Sidis graduated Harvard at age 16. He was predicted to be one of the greatest mathematicians of the century.. he went on to become a fucking recluse/weirdo publishing nothing more than a bunch of stupid languages he made up......

mediocrity has never been an option for me. but while i enjoy the finer things in life and am not working towards a future of incessant financial struggle, prestige is not what i'm after. i want to live a life that is my own and do the things i want, study and explore the worlds of ideas that interest me, travel, and ultimately have someone to come home to with her own set of goals with whom i can create our own world. if all happiness is to you is a 100K salary and a big house then i deeply and truly pity you. my advice to the younger people in this thread is to take what you love and try to make that your world and the rest of the good things will follow.

but all those people without the big house and lots of money are just hardheaded losers, though. they didn't take full advantage of what society has to offer them, dingbats!1

i'm not saying there's anything wrong with having or wanting nice things. but if that's all you're after, especially in pursuing an education, it's pitiful. to me nice things are well, nice, but they ultimately don't have any real value in comparison to intellectual and emotional growth.

Jesus christ the arrogance in this post is striking.
Yes and so what. I'm good at what I do, probably the best. Its not what I think, its what everyone else says.
You have 18000 posts from the last four years. I am in total awe of your accomplishments. Watch out guys this is the next Einstein.

I'm a barista right now making around 9-10 an hour depending on tips... In my dream state, I'd love to front man a band with rhythm guitar and vocals. Already have two albums recorded with some serious quality thanks to a friend covering bass, drums, synth and production. This sounds cliche as hell but sex, drugs, rock n' roll.

i completely agree with your sentiment here.
you should try telling this to mellowparty though, he seems to be confusing the two aspects here. he's acting as if his intellectual and emotional growth is like that of a giant house and billing a 401k, whilst his actually accomplishments are slim to none.

I don't have to prove myself to scum like you.
yet you continuously attempt to. interesting.
PS: a PhD is a good thing to have. knowledge, also, is a good thing to have.
neither are fundamentally exclusive to people who are happy, however. YOU clearly aren't happy, so don't judge "the druggie losers" that you so apparently are yourself.
but look who i am talking to. another crass wanna-be who thinks because he's eked out a living or in your case, a PhD; that he's reached the zenith of human capabilities, and can insult anyone who doesn't aspire to his beliefs.
another IDIOT to me.

I don't use drugs at all anymore so your comment doesn't apply to me. Go and take your schizo pills, I'll do whatever the fuck I want in life while you can continue hearing voices or whatever lol.

ok, sure, you just sell them. if that isn't a druggie wanna-be loser, then... you keep deluding yourself dude. make everyone out to be something they aren't, while you're perfectly dandy as a lousy drug dealing wanker.
PS: "go and take my skitzo pills", oh please. 
i'm skitzo because i can tell you're a degenerate, even with your PhD? 
PPS: oh adn you DID take drugs, when you thought they were a solution to your problems. now their not, so better insult people!1

Oh how long have you been acting for? I know my brother used to be an actor along time ago, but he doesn't act any longer. He doesn't pretend to be someone he isn't, he won't ever try to put himself in the shoes of anyone else, and if asked he would probably state that he wished to go into someone other than that persons shoes instead.
I actually know this actor that is my brothers friend, they met at a bar a year ago. But he was taken out of the bar because he was saying something which they felt the urge to resist to allowing it to present itself.
As if purposely trying to prevent you from acknowledging that you don't wish to act anymore. Sometimes we'd rather no longer choose to act and decide to do something else instead, perhaps something which we haven't done in a long time and feel we should do again. Then we sometimes find ourselves doing the same thing again at times, but then we won't decide no longer to do it and reveal a choice to do it another time. As if asking for a special request to not be seen with someone they never acted with, and who must have got the wrong idea and assuming he was an actor.
My brother tried to persuade me to acquire actor like traits to fulfill later attainments.
We might choose to attain something in which we had never wished to get the idea that it was inviting you to discover it. As if the discover of this object was something you knew but didn't wish to know.

I just signed a contract to a big time ski film company as a cinematographer and skier. They might even be filming with National Geographic next year. http://soulryders.com/#/ben-parker/
