The likes you listed are all mostly worthless for money i'd say

Philosophy, pretty slim chance of making any money off that

comedy, being a successful comedian is like winning the jackpot

psychology, everyone and their mom studied psychology in college

anthropology, anthropology degrees alone are near impossible to be successful with.

psychedelics, sell them for money

shamanism, go to Peru and be a 'shaman' for tourists. fry your brain 40 hours a week for not alot of cash flow.

Yeah, if you go into any of those majors you have to suck so much dick just to get onto a successful career path.

I had the same outlook as you when I first started playing with psychedelics a while ago but ive laid off a bit in the past year or so, and in that time my views have matured into something a little different.

In that time ive started attending uni also studying science, but I'm loving it instead. I always hated school and scoffed at the idea of uni, but now that im there I've become addicted to knowledge, and education, and am always super enthusiastic about my classes and degree.

What im trying to say basically is that I dont know what to do with life either, but i love the sciences (as im assuming you do too considering your degree), and so i figured id rather do a job in a field im interested in than to call it quits, cease all higher education and pick up a trade.

Knowlwdge is power. You can never learn too much, so dont call it an "education", call it an education.

Or maybe you just need to discern between what your hobbies are and what your passions are. Psychedelics and talking philosophy, to me, are hobbies. Science is my passion. You may now scoff at the idea of chasing the scientific dragon and only getting more questions for each answered, because in the end it doesn't matter to you. But you can quite easily still chase scientifc answers with enthusiasm, whilst still being happy and spreading love.

:peace:

First you'd have to find employment with said drug company, and even then they'll take your product and patent it themselves and make all the money :cookiemonster:

Or you can be a drug dealer.

Id say suffer thru college since u get decent grades, graduate with a degree then descide what makes you happy.

Or if u wanna just drop of college and become a shaman thatd be cool too :shrug:

But seriously, consider about your future and what u think is most valuable: happiness or living with a good income. Its possible to have both if u pursue a field that is both profitable and involves psychology, psychedelics, anthropology and shamanism. Maybe like a Field Researcher at an Amazonian indigenous tribe.

get married young, have a fuck load of kids, make the wife work. :smirk:

nah man, on the serious note, learn a trade.  You still have plenty of time to figure out what the end goal is.  sure, trades pay shit for the first little while, but they really start to pay dividends by the time you are in your mid to late 20's

I knew a guy is into the same type of shit. He's a youth counselor and has an office filled with hand drums and African masks and shit like that. Can't say I'd enjoy it myself, but he carved his own niche and gets to be a funky professional for a paycheck.

its really one of the hardest descisions a person can make: what should i do with my life?

Theres literally infinite possibilities and comboniations to choose from, where to live, what work to get into, what people to live with, what lifestyle to be part of.....

Its up to u to descide whats best for you at this time in your life, and hopefully it pays enough to support you.

mechanics, printing, electrical, glass blowing, paper, wine making, you name it man.. the options are limitless.

for example, i have an automotive background, that led me to becoming an engineer i can now work from anywhere with an internet connection.  its a path worth checking out.

Construction equipment operations (so much different equipment you could learn), welding (for all kinds of different types of work), carpentry, mechanic (consumer vehicles, trucks, airplanes), oil drilling.

Search trade jobs, you'll find a ton. If you're good with computers, you can get IT certifications pretty easily like A+ or CCNA certifications.

Maybe consider nursing. An RN can work a myriad of jobs. Travel nursing is 3 months at a time or more and one can be a travel nurse within the state of residence, or travel overseas. Some even work 9 months out of the year and take the rest off depending on what kind of lifestyle/material things you might want. There are 3 night/12hr shifts and 4 days off schedules as well. :grin:

LPN gets you in and then the job may pay for most or all of the rest of your education/training for RN. I went straight for the RN 2 year ASN/ADN degree. You get to help people/contribute to society, travel, and make a decent living. Everybody wins!:grin:

Stop consuming psychedelics often while you set up your future... You can only change your mind with a trip, but you can change the world with an education and good intentions.

Finish college. Get your degree. See where you stand in 3-4 years from now. You just had your first psychedelic trip. You took in a lot but don't quit your life now because of it.

You're young man, and part of that age is feeling the way you do. Even without psychedelics you'd be in a similar boat. You don't have to figure it all out now. And you most likely won't. What you want out of life now will change. It's also not accurate to say that most people hate their jobs. Some do, some don't, some love what they do. Personally I love what I do. It's not all that hard to find passions that can be channeled into a career. But the way you feel is common, especially for your age. I certainly felt the same way, and would've laughed you out of the room if you'd have told me what I'd be doing for a career back then. Life is a journey, and you've barely gotten started. Your brain has years to go before it's even finished developing....to put some perspective here. You'll be trying to figure yourself for years to come yet. Embrace the process, and relax.....don't pressure yourself to figure it all out quick.
