i don't have money and i'm not that sad. just stressed sometimes. i wish i had enough to like do a little bit more (like maybe take a vacay, or buy some new clothes).

christmas break i will be working but i will have to spend that on presents for peeps. maybe i will attempt to get a job next semester. but that might be death.

maybe it makes you happy to a point

but not when you are working 70 hours a week and don't even have time to enjoy it! its really cool if you drive a 60,000 car that sits in a garage all day while you're inside and NEVER see the light of day.

i'd rather live my life, thanks

You say that money isn't everything.

But I'd like to see you live without it.

no i am not on food stamps

well i don't want to be a lawyer in a large firm

govt work/military/or something else like the peace corps/U.N./i am not entirely sure

so i probably will never make a shitload of money, but i will make enough

^^ i didn't say money isn't everything. i said that there isn't really a point in making over 6 figures if you have to hate your life to do it. there is a difference. i guess that wasn't glaringly obvious to everyone. i never said i could live without money. i spend the time i'm not in school working with people without money so i'm pretty aware that it majorly sucks

6 figures isn't some crazy amount, far from it

Its the expected level for most college-degree requiring jobs when your reach a point in your mid thirties, if not before

For a lawyer, not making 6 figures is public defender level

but from your original statement I inferred that you are still somewhat sad because you are poor.

well six figures is kindof a broad term. i wasn't talking 100,000. and i don't think it is the expected level but we can agree to disagree. but yea it is a broad term since it encompasses everything from 100,000 to 999,999.

i'm not saying it is crazy. i'm saying it is CRAZY to work so much that you don't get to enjoy what you are working for. i mean that could apply if you were working an hourly job, as well. i just see a lot of it.

and not necessarily. if you work in a large city you could make 100,000 or more as a public defender.

and actually the starting salary for a lot of lawyers is under 100,000. it depends on firm size and location. especially now, you are lucky to get a job

yeah but when you say 6 figures you have to take into account most people would think to the low end, not the upper end close to 7 figures. You probably used the term "6 figures" out of context.

no, i probably didn't

but what the term means has nothing to do with my point, so it doesn't really matter
