You have to start young and have never given up on your goal to work a job you enjoy doing. It's not work if you enjoy doing it. Once you are doing a job you enjoy doing, it becomes your passion. You get better at it, and start getting paid more to do it. If you are lucky, you will find an opportunity that you can't pass up.

See yes, I absolutely agree with this completely. Most people figure it out when they are in school, take the right courses to get the right post secondary and are set. Some are in need of change at some point and have to go through the process again. I have over a dozen different career paths I'm seriously interested in, tried to get involved with, etc. but they are all financially impossible for me to do. I either need to go to school, or have money to start a business. Student loans are inadequate. Beyond tuition, they often don't even give enough money for rent let alone anything else. Scholarships and bursaries are great, but can't be budgeted for ahead of time. Working and going to school simultaneously is too much for me, I do much more poorly, and it really beats down on me. You have the right idea, but for me it doesn't work. I have no choice but do do jobs I don't want to do, or at best sacrifice income, to do something that I dislike slightly less, but still don't want to do. I know people are going to keep commenting here, but there is nothing possible that can be said that is something I haven't thought about/tried. Thank you though.
