being happy >>>>>>> being miserable

Most of these guys commenting would not understand until they have had the same experience. You have to live life instead of
chasing money and overlooking your health. Make the right decision, go to your family and socialize with those still living before it's too late.

this is some broke nikka thinking to be honest.

Its this sort of shyt that gets people complacent.

Money allows you to get all of that shyt out of the way in the first place.

Money can't buy happiness, but it damn sure will bring you closer to it.

nah man.

nikkas are being unreasonable. Thats what I don't get.

I'm NOT against entreprenuership...but OP ain't even on that lane yet.

He's all talk but no vision.

Thats why people hate our generation. No commitment to anything. They see the next man and think about the grass being greener and end up starting all over as middle aged men thinking they'll "get it right" the next time.

Its completely ridiculous.

OP ain't even considering STARTING his business NOW like most people do on the side and transitioning into it.

Dude is like in a better position than like 85% of America. tho.

hmm... to the OP I would actually heed some of the earlier advice and apply to B-school. Try to get into one of the top ones. Its not super stressful and the biggest thing you'll get from it is the expansion of your network which will give you access to capital aka financing to start your business off the right way. That in and of itself is major. From what I hear the coursework isn't all that great, but the networking opportunities are major.

Lots of engineers who make the switch to b-school. Maybe take some time off, study for the GMAT, rock it, and apply this fall/winter. Try to get into one of the big ones, Harvard, Stanford, Wharton. Its not as hard as it sounds, there's a formula. Check out this program: http://www.ml4t.org/. B-school is work, but IMO compared to law/med school/STEM Ph. Ds, its basically one big party. Honestly, from talking to my friends it seems like a cake walk to me. But it sets you up for great opportunities. Your mindset will change, the way you approach challenges will change and your your opportunities will expand. You just have to make sure you go to right ones.

I understand how you feel, you want to use your youth to make as much headway as you can in your career.
I don't know OP's formal education and B-School is a risk for many, but I don't see how it could hrut someone like him.

He's got experience, but a network and a b-school degree from a legit school could really help him start the "business" career he's hoping to transition into.

Dude just sounds aimless right now.

Im not surprised with your lack the ambition. You're a weak excuse for a black man. You spend so much time talking about women issues and riding their puss you wasn't able to develop that grit that's very much needed for a black man to succeed in this society. You got the path in front of you and here you are making excuses on why you shouldn't walk it anymore. You wanna be your own boss, while thats a good pipe dream don't use that as a excuse to back down. You can accomplish that and still keep doing what you're doing. You want it to be easy, well it's not.

Maybe if you put as much time into building yourself instead of woman bashing you would be in a better place. How about you stop listening to these nikkas like tommy who bask in black male mediocrity with nothing to show for it you would have a better mindset.

money isn't everything, yes I agree. But be honest with yourself... don't try to play yourself by justifying your reasons for quitting with excuses about family and being home sick. It's disgusting
I agree with every word here.

Complete irrationality by the OP

:manny: I hear you, that's why I leaning more towards keeping that hobby status. Guess I'm taking out my ass a little. I mean day to day ATC is cool. But my dude, when you have a close call you're involved with and even if you didn't make a mistake that messes with you forreal. That is of course if you take this shyt seriously and take pride in your work like me. And God forbid you have an aircraft accident and someone dies....:damn:

Most of times you deal with it and find ways to destress, just gotta fight past those rough times.
nah, but you wanna DJ though.

:camby:

You ain't about that life. Just admit it.

I love how ya'll are acting like OP's word is "gospel" in here.

dude breaks 100K now he's got the keys to success?

Word?

cause everything he's talking about don't make any sense.

Don't lump me in with "ya'll", nikka. :comeon: OP is in the Geofrrey Chancher/skeetsinternal/Art Barr category to me..."Fonzie's" to the Coli. Older nikkas who drop the RARE gems. :camby:

I'm actually in professional school right now, and will be making more than OP in a couple years...but i'm really trying to figure out what i need to do to move into the 250,000+ tax bracket before 35 without being a surgeon or some shyt. Just felt like this was a good thread to post that thought.

I was honestly thinking about either starting a blog about what I plan on doing and gaining a little following as an "expert" OR doing some consulting on the side.

Theres a lot of niches to be filled in healthcare by the small guys
