Yeah I liked it a lot. I read it along with other similar books, about 4 years ago when I didn't know what the fuck I was doing with my life and pretty depressed about everything. This rang true to home: “Because I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man.”

 

That is good to know; are you successful now? I liked that quote as well. I also liked when it said, "If you pursue your dreams, the whole universe will conspire to make it happen" or something like that. I am following my dreams now, and it does seem that a lot of good things are happening. We'll see.

 

Yesss, finally some existentialists here. "Mother died today. Or maybe yesterday; I can't be sure." ~Camus

To the original poster. Everyone on Wall St wants to be a doctor. Every doctor wants to work on Wall St.
It's a grass is greener thing.
