I've been there. It'll pay off in the long run, and probably in the short run too.Some of the students I'm attending classes with call me kid despite having their parents cash in their wallets and eating food that they did not make themselves.
Thanks. It's already paying off, mainly because I went to the dorm knowing only how to make grilled cheese and pizza, by skill to skill comparison I'm already feeling like much less obnoxious/shouty Gordon Ramsey. Next year I hope to get that much better. In your experience, what's the benefit in the long run? I'm banking on self-reliance and not being suddenly completely baffled how expensive everything is ;).
I mean, what's not? You'll value every single good thing that happens to you that much more, forever.In your experience, what's the benefit in the long run?
I supported myself for a good chunk of college by parting fools and their parents' money. I definitely don't advise doing that, but it does give one perspective on what it means to live in a world run by people who had their place in it handed to them.
hope it was ransomware
Ransomware wasn't a thing yet, would have been too indiscriminate, and besides that no fun at all. You don't need much skill to pick a drunk fratboy's pocket, and you can find many drunk fratboys conveniently clustered together pretty much every weekend.
