>you will never do a degree that is 100 % useless outside of academia
>you will never never have a real job and live off your inheritance
>your parents will never be deeply disappointed in you for refusing to inherit the family business while your brother goes in to banking and your sister in to exclusively upper class but braindead and not very well paid work (e.g. art gallery curator), squandering her very high intelligence but none of you really care because she's female and not much is expected because your family's old fashioned like that
>you will never have a night out that ends up with you being mugged and beaten by lower class people which almost gives you an epiphany but not quite due to your immense privilege
>you will never be homosexual before it was cool, while also having constant sex with thin, supermodel sized 8+ women, while remaining ridiculously unemotional and dismissive towards them, as would be judged by an outside observer
>you will never wander art galleries around the world while dismissing the pre-modernists as gauche while muttering under your breath and giving mean looks to the American and Japanese tourists
>you will never walk through Paris on an Autumn day while handing 100 euro notes to street musicians you like and spitting on the mimes and immigrant beggars

I don't believe it. You need money and a good education to be a bohemian now, or else you're a dilettante. Maybe 600 years ago you could open your mouth and instantly come up with world changing philosophies. These days the low hanging fruit is gone so you would need level 5000 autism to do that. Also same for poetry / prose, where quality these days is by definition licking the canon in a way that shows off how much you know
