He said he wants to travel. You need money to travel.

OP, you should definitely drop out. It doesn't sound like you have the desire or drive to finish college, so there's no point in wasting additional money.

You're 22, so give the jewelry a shot I guess, but I'd seriously consider a back up plan. Wire wrapping is everywhere.

Selling jewlry on street corners is a joke. Then pic you posted looks like you stuck McDonald's treasure gems into the copper wire ball. Sorry man but it's true.

Theres always gonna be some higher level hippy around your street corner selling better shit than you.

Your feet will be dirty and itchy all the time.

Don't listen to these fuckers egging you to go homeless and "follow your dreams", it's a load of bs.

Instead, persue the real money so you can really do what you want when you have wealth.

Imagine if every artist who ever lived their dreams were discouraged by someone saying the same fucking shit to em. If the dude want's to do it than I say go for it. A dream is a dream. Fuck what other people think.

Think about the millions of kids who go to art school only to be working at Starbucks after they graduate.

I've seen enough of that shit happen to my unfortunate friends, that i think it's better that these art kids be advised to not go that route.

follow your dreams..
first you have to make sure that the opportunity ir for real.
if you don´t like what you study maybe check for another carreer.
be carefull because the business that you talking about may end some day or soon...
in fact...
you can be a self taught artist and succeed because your doing what you love.

make sure that your work is liked by your target audience

You want to follow uncertain dreams for years while suffering in depression and financial dispair?

By the sounds of it I'm guessing you failed at your dreams and just assume nobody can follow theirs because of it.

I actually avoided that by choosing not to go to art school, while a couple friends of mine did go to art school and they are now fucking off doing nothing.

I went for a business and science degree and now own an LLC.  with my business partner And am currently doing quiet well.

You saint.

Everyone should be pussies and quit their dreams.


--------------------
How to get started in bulk:
Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker
BOD's Simple as FUCK Still Air Box
PastyWhyte's Easy Agar Tek
Munchauzen's Cultivation Video Series
How EvilMushroom666 Prepares His Grains (I use jars with Synthetic Filter Discs)
What is G2G? (Grain-to-Grain)
Damion5050's Coir Tek (I use 5.5 - 6 quarts of water instead of 4. Also ignore step 13 and ignore the monotub completely. The only purpose of this tek is to show you how to make a simple substrate. I also add gypsum to it but not necessary)
Spitball's Monotub Tek (A liner isn't necessary but is useful)
Use 6500k lights throughout the whole process. When you wake up, turn the light on. When you go to sleep turn the light off. It's as simple as that.

Some people ARE made for art and can succeed in that.

Take Picasso for example, he made it big with his art, he got wealthy. But the difference between him and the million others who didn't make it, is he had the talent from birth. He was destined for it and is a 1 in a million example.

I can respect that...it just seemed like you were basically saying no one should try making a career out of art. I must have misunderstood you.

Thing about OP is, he posted a pic of his work and I'm not one to falsely support and compliment. I can tell with high certainty that, that piece of jewlry is generic and is one OF millions just like it. Theres nothing unique about it and the Chinese are millions of miles ahead of him with that.
