What does it mean to be successful in life after college?

@beetleman ,it depends on what you want out of life. Sucess means different things to different people.

Sucess for a laidback, wealthy son might mean inheriting his father’s corporation and investing in millions and retiring early. On the other hand, success for a work-loving individual who believes in always being productive might mean participating in community service and volunteer work beyond retirement. Does this make sense?

In general, “success” may mean getting a job you love, being able to pay the bills, owning a car, owning a house, having a family.

But it really depends.
