I will only have a fucking bachelor's in May 2009. The dude doesn't pay a dime for my colllege because I got a full ride and he's telling me this bullshit??!?! WTF?!!?

I gots plans... Prolly Monsanto or SLU for one year then back to grad school for tissue engineering and business.

Can someone here explain to me why the fuck he told me that fucking bulllshit?

Perhaps jealousy for what is in your future?

Monsanto?

Yikes.

Check out the documentary The Future of Food sometime. Monsanto is down to some no-good shit, and fucks small-time farmers in the ass.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

I am all about money. My dad has gone through bankrupcy. I paid for house payments for a few months, starting my parents grocery store business, car payments, etc. I've loaned out thousands to family and friends...

I LOVE MONEY and that is why I will continue my path to Monsanto or anywhere else where I will rise above and be rich as fuck, unlike my father....

And that Monsanto shit's irrelevant. You wanna grow obsolete crops and lose to competition, so be it. Die out.

My goal is those 3 hot bitches in my sig and a sweet ass fucking car.. Errrr, cars.

good for you.. theres no reason not to finish your degree, and i really think your fathers wrong.


but, i'd also stress that thinking money is everything is foolish.  you might just end up a rich version of your father if your not careful.

Ummmm, I doubt it. My mother raised me while my father was out and about. I am nothing like my father. I'm just fucking pissed off that he would dare to tell that fucking bullshit when I put thousands of my fucking money to save the house, car, start a business, etc. after he blew it all on gambling, stupid decisions, etc. Mother fuck...

see above

also...anyone can make money if that is all that they want. why dont you make yourself useful to the world? you'll still make piles of money.

and ya, you can make $$ while still being involved in academia.

your pa prob only went to hschool and has no idea what he's talkin about, but obviously you do. dont worry about him. you'll have to take care of him anyways.

The only legitimate reason to say that would be if you are not succeeding in school.  For some people, that is the case.  However, you say you are on track to get your BS and I assume you are not failing classes; if thats the case then of course that is foolish advice.

Why would he do that?  Someone mentioned jealousy, that may be part of it.  Does he have a college degree?  Often parents expect from their kids the same things they did - if they went to college they expect you to go to college, if they started working they expect you to start working.  In this way parent perpetuate their social-economic class on their children.  The great thing about America is you dont have to listen to your parents and can move up or down the social ladder as you please!

:awesome:

bitches and money? what about morals and ethics?  I'd rather be remembered for having made a real difference in the world somehow.

where do you get all this money to lend if you don't work..?


tell him studying is work too, hopefuly to progress you more quickly in the area or profession or whatever you're interested in so that later you'll be better equipped.

whoa, oh this isnt OTD. deep breath.

dude, dont worry about your dad, you will get everything your looking for if you work hard (min 60hrs/week) and go to grad school.

just do something useful for the world. if you work hard enough you can create your own job, you dont have to take whats offered.

peace

is he a white collar worker or blue?

if he's a blue collar worker he might be drunk,jealous,thinks your a penpusher,thinks real men work and get their hands dirty etc

if he's a white collar worker he might be scared you'll lose your soul like he might have

maybe he thinks trades are making a come back and office work is dying because of the crash

fuck knows

just guessing


do what you think is best
