Default Life Goals

Okay, my brother is on my nuts to come up with 10 things i can see myself doing in 10+ years time. What are some ideas?

I have a few things so far.

1) Some form of automotive engineering (i suck at math)
2) Own some form of auto business

Need a few ideas guys. Im limited by my own creativity, and thats someting i lack lol.

FYI: I am very mechanically savi, as well as computer literate. Something along those lines.

Honestly Sebba, and I speak from experience, any hands on auto job is great, but tough.
Theres ALOT of bull-****, and from October to March, expect to live off Ramen noodles b/c thats a VERY slow time.
Turning wrenches is great, but you have to be damn good to survive, not just mechanically inclined can cut it.

Look for something outside of mechanics, maybe drafting or auto-cad work.
My friends dad is an architecural drafter and makes 80K+ a year.

God damnit im ****ing serious. If you dont have a serious input then dont ****ing post.

College - No ****ing way to i see myself still in college in 10+ years time
Military - No that is not a ****ing career, or a businessventure. Thats suicide and not even the fun kind
ITT Tech - No, thats for people that****ed up high school and have nothing better to do with their lives
Mc D'z - Thats something i would do now... i rather kill myself than do it in 10 years.

LOL i 100% agree, thats why i said i would own the business

Thats what i meant in terms of automotive engineering, like in the actual anufacturing aspect.

Thanks man at least your input was useful. Unlike those ****ers

Owning a shop is a BIG pain in the ***.
Stay away from that.
There so many Joe Blow repair shops, along with dealerships, that the chances of your business failing are high.
