Sacrificing it all for Finance
In high school I had no friends as I was 3 years younger than my peers, having skipped three grades. This absolutely messed with my social and mental esteem and caused me to resort to working all the time. Work for me has become a sort of escape. I consistently fantasize about becoming the best and growing rich enough to gain people’s respect. I truly believe that despite the problems this has caused I have gained a unique edge because of it. I derive a sort of pleasure from staying up all night studying investments and finance. On the outside I am extremely extroverted and have no problem with a coffee chat or conversation, but I have no friends or people to talk to. If I maintain this work-focused mindset as I go through college and beyond, and continue placing my identity in work, will this bring happiness?
Happiness is mix between a state of being and a choice, not a destination you check boxes off to get to. And no, work alone will not create happiness.
Bro you need friends, end of story
