I'm a 24 year old community college dropout living with my parents. I have no friends (no active social circle) and no gf.

My parents are telling me to do something with my life and I don't really know what I want to do. To move out. Get a girlfriend. Go do something.

I have like 3 grand saved up and I can do do work remotely for enough to live on. Nothing sounds particularly appealing and that hurts. Should I just dedicate myself to moving somewhere, getting friends and being a hedonist? To nothing? The indecision kills. Working to get money for no reason kills.

So, what should I do?

im living in france and i can tell you

american system of higher education is way better. in europe and most of the world really, you specialize really early on, and you pick your career the second you start college and you have hardly any elective courses, and if you do, it won't be half as a free as in an american college, mostly languages

but the quality of the classes tend to be higher in europe. so yeh

a) I'm glad I cannot get a degree in underwater basket weaving.

b) Doing an M.A. means more or less that you either become a professor or you end up working as something that is only vaguely related to your university studies (at least for the M.A. I did, but probably for most humanities subjects that are not teacher training).

b) In my B.A. I had English and Cognitive Science, I was a tutor for formal methods and programming, so I think I'm pretty versatile for a humanities guy.

not to mention, even trying to get a job with a degree in america, there is going to be a flood of people with degrees in the near future so many people are going to uni these days and even more in the future, it will become so competitive that just having a degree won't be enough instead a dr or master... schools need to be reinvented if we want to continue to strive as a society

I don't think I thought I was replying to who you think I thought I was replying to.

That said, I do think that there are ups and downs to having a broader, less specialized university education. However, I think that in certain areas (language skills, mathematics), my education by the time I started my B.A. probably covered the stuff that someone doing a B.A. in America would learn in subjects they are not majoring in.

Jesus fucking Christ stop being such a melodramatic twat. You're going to work for the same reason everybody has always worked.

Just find some job. It doesn't matter. Work in a restaurant.

At least you don't have to bust your ass 12 hours a day 7 days a week to barely afford food like a huge portion of the world.
