i don't mean to burst any bubbles since i have dreams similar to all of yours, but do you guys honestly think you will achieve everything or almost everything you've listed? i don't know any of you personally, so who knows, maybe you all will achieve what you want and i hope you do. but i think it's *extremely* rare for anyone to fulfill their dreams with time , pressure, certain circumstances etc. etc. being in the way. i hope this little blurb makes sense to you. i guess what i am trying to say is don't get your hopes up and take it one day at a time. and stop thinking too far ahead into the future! live now! i know it's tough to do cause i have the same problem as well!

Yeah BBA is Bachelor's of Business Administration. $145,000 in 2025 would be about the same as $80,000 now so its not that much of a stretch to think that most of the people here would be making that assuming we all get graduate degrees.

Adding in inflation 20 years from now, $200,000 might not be that big of a deal

At 35:

Location: Anywhere

Occupation: Renaissance woman: activist, teacher/professor, writer, photographer, and maybe an M.D. or earn a Phd.

Salary: $80,000 <- I doubt any of the professions, except M.D., listed above makes that much. So, salary is probably $50,000 if lucky.

Employer: either self-employed, in non-profit section or public sector

Degrees: anywhere from a B.A. or B.S. to a Phd or an M.D.


That's as much as I can predict. I don't know if I'll do any of the things mentioned above, so as for now consider this b.s. talk.
