First I want to say I totally agree with you. I had a job that I absolutely hated, and it was just a 3 month internship plus some other jobs but it seemed like that internship was the closest to what I would actually be doing when i finished school. It just seemed like the time I had to myself had drastically decreased and the week went by so fast at that internship. I've read books by richard kiyosaki and alot of others which is why i can totally see what you're saying, but the question I have is what do you think about college. Im a junior now so I'm thinking i might as well finish and college is a good experience, and I'm doin pretty good, but it just seems like I'm wasting money right now. Im paying for classes (and ALOT of other things) right now and its seeming like I don't need the professors because they don't teach. They "lecture" out of the book I paid 100$ for that I have to read myself anyway, and your real grade depends on how well you know the book. They might add some pointless info or have quizzes to see if you're coming to class but it just seems like its all about the book. Plus what's it all for? It seems like its just setting me up to work that 9-5 I don't want to work at anyway. My family just doesn't understand because they all have finished college and work the 9-5 in accounting and they are totally closed minded to any alternative. They all have nice houses and make money and I don't know what they save, but it doesn't seem to me like their living their dreams and its like their having the same money problems kiyosaki describes his "poor" dad as having plus the time they waste at their job.
Then again I've talked to people that say work at a job after you finish school and invest to get out of having to work. Richard kiyosaki put out a game I bought and the game is based on getting out of the "rat race" that is the job you speak of. I really just wanna know where you stand since you've done college. Im just confused right now
