    Life and careers
    What is more important, having a fully set up career or enjoying life?


    You see I want to travel and college seems to be taking forever, I want to travel when I young and not in my 30's.

    I want to be successful but I also want to be content with my life.

    Both are important.

    Finish college, THEN travel.

    Colleges takes what, 4 years?

    Why not travel in the 4 month summer break?

    And you are not old at 30.

    How old are you? Did you start college late?

    FINISH your college degree first, then travel.

    Or set up to do a year of college in one part of the country and then another year at another school, just work to be sure that the credits transfer.

    But when they say you can live on love, YOU can't, it takes money to pay rent, buy food and so on. But the trick is to get the education to do the job you love.

    You love to travel, go to school and work in the travel business, or become a airline pilot.

    What is most important, working at a job you enjoy, not working just for the money.
