Haven’t seen one of these in awhile. I’m about to graduate this sprint with a bachelors in software engineering and my plan is to comfy wagey and dump every paycheck in eth for the next 4 years. Any flaws to this plan?

Right now I'm getting an associates in computer programming then transfering to a well known college for college for comp sci. Using the GI bill so I'm getting $3,100 for the next 36 months while working part time 30/hr. Don't think I'll escape the wage cage ever, but maybe at least be comfortable eventually

I have no major. I work a trade job for $40/hr, 60hr/wk + $1000/wk per diem and gas paid for. I live in a camper and just save everything I earn, which amounts to about $3000-3500/wk

I was a physics major and now I'm a data analyst at literally a business consulting firm. I have the same goal of becoming a MLE. My job is wfh and very comfy, but I haven't really done too much yet. No valuable skills learned so far, but I teach myself python on the side (pandas, seaborn, and some ML shit).

Not all trades are body destroying. For instance, I inspect power plants without any degree or training that my company didn't provide. The only tough part about the job is working night shifts, but we only do 3-6 hours of actual inspections and get paid for 10, 7 days a week. The work itself is physically easy

I'm graduating next semester with a bachelors of Economics. I only did it so my mom wouldn't kick me out and that it's a high paying field. Already getting job offers for 76 grand a year.

What led you to the position you're in and how did you get it?
I feel like a big part of what holds me back is that I don't know too much about the world and this do not know much about myself. I was a shut-in through my adolescence and had childish interests that never actually got me anywhere

I was 23 when I went to Uni for 5 years.

Now I have a BSc in Geophysics, and an MSc in Exploration Geophysics

COVID killed the oil industry, but the maths/coding/problem solving has landed me a cushy R&D job in the Civil Service, with LOADS of training in Data Analytics/Data Sci/Machine Learning

The Oil, Gas and Mining industries are sorely needing Data Sci types, so I plan to hop back in a year or so, with a combo of experience and geophysics domain knowledge.

In short, go for it! Just make sure you learn practical/applied skills to give you the ability to bounce back if something throws you
