What are the people you knew in high school doing now?

We get all caught up in the hustle and bustle, what are some of the peers you knew in your teenage years doing now?

Do you still keep in touch with them? Would you say they're generally happy with their career choice/lifestyle decisions?

And how about you? Would you say you turned out alright based on your group of friends you had when you were younger?

Looking back, the people I hung out with were either douche bags or unmotivated. I came from a rural/suburban area in PA and it was very blue collar. So I got rid of Facebook, Instagram, deleted numbers of everyone I knew from high school and haven't looked back since. I wasn't going to let my past hold me back. I knew they would be no value to me in life.

 

Well I'm only a year out but so far from what I know and the people I have kept in contact with:

3 people have died (1 in a gang slaying, 2 from suicide)

1 dropped out, now working as a waitress at cracker barrel

2 are working as mechanics and 1 is going to college part-time

A couple in community college with me, 2 are about to flunk out because they have shit grades

1 is a drug dealer and works full time at a grocery store

1 moved to New Zealand and is doing well there

The rest I'm just assuming are in college or something having fun living their lives

Looks like a good crowd, you should organize a BBQ gathering sometime.

 

Eh, I picked out the ones that are semi-interesting

Most people just went to college and have been weekend warriors for about a year now but most nobody has really done shit with their lives that I know of so far. I mean we're not even 20 yet so it's to be expected but I do wonder sometimes what their grades are looking like and what their plans are for the future lol.

I sound like such a fucking geed when I say that but hey it is what it is

 
faceslappingcompilation:
how does a drug dealer not make enough to quit the grocery store (unless that is where he sells the drugs) ?

sounds like a really bad drug dealer.

Check Freakonomics. The foot soldier peddling assumes all the risk for dang near minimum wage. Many South Side Chicago dealers interviewed often took a job pushing a broom or working MCD to make ends meet. Moving up the food-chain to the trafficker/wholesaler is where the real cheddar is. Then again you have gunners looking to gun you down and do what you do better for cheaper.

One is engaged with a kid (different father)

One is a paramedic working towards firefighter

One still lives at home working at a hot dog stand approaching 30, dropped out of community college

One is a bodybuilder, does community college here and there

One is a bartender, dropped out of community college

One got a degree in pol sci, went to work as consultant, now works for a travel agency and I think is happiest of all of them

Several others that I wasn't super close with are still at home doing the same thing they've always done

Hadn't really reflected on it until now, had to look several people up. Pretty much lost touch with every one I was friends with in high school. I'm kinda sad about it because I've tried to get in touch when I visit home, but what I've heard is that there is a fair bit of resentment towards me now. Our whole group was pretty lazy / stoners in HS and we had a ton of fun, but I'm the only one who really got out of that and did something else I guess.

Kudos to you though... sometimes it's hard to outgrow the people you hang out with or used to hang out with

 

This is the exact reason I've always focused on have a couple of core friends along the way. I still have 2 incredibly close friends from HS but haven't spoken to any others in years. So many people growing up felt the need (maybe societal pressure) to have LOTS of friends, its almost like they felt it gave them value. Now they've all broken apart and hardly speak to each other because none of the bonds were strong.

 

My three best friends from highschool are an orthodontist, a navy pilot, and a dude who has lived in Seoul for 5 years teaching English and dating Koreans. I still keep in touch with them - orthodontist more than the others. They all seem pretty happy and I think they all have solid, albeit very different, lives.

Yeah he was the only one who really hated his job after college and wasn't going anywhere in his industry, so he made a change and never looked back. I have a lot of respect for people who are in a shit place and then fight their way out.

It's usually the opposite tbh. I did a study abroad in China and we met a bunch of the white/American dudes "teaching" English in china. It was almost exclusively men who didn't know what they wanted to do and couldn't get laid. They thought it would be easier in China and that was the main driving factor in their decision.

 

At least 5 of my friends have gotten married or engaged, which is horrifying to me (I'm 22). Also not a lot of kids I knew in HS have moved out of my hometown.

This post inspired me to delete a lot of numbers out of my phone/unfollow people on social media. I'm still friendly with these people, but there's been a lot of times where I just don't feel like I'm on the same level as them in terms of ambition or career aspirations. I guess that's life

That is very young and sadly very common for where my fiancee grew up - less so for me. She knows so many people who are divorced and/or already on their second marriage.

Let me see:

  • Jamie had a chance, well she really did - instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids

  • Mark still lives at home, 'cause he's got no job - just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot

  • Jay committed suicide

  • Brandon OD'ed and died

Fragile lives, shattered dreams, ya know? Cruelest dream, reality.

My top 4 high school friends:

  1. Biomedical engineer

  2. One of my good friends held various manufacturing jobs - his family is very blue collar and the kid is a hell of a worker. He just got a job at a large public utility doing blue collar ish stuff with them. He's set. College wasn't for him

  3. This friend literally just graduated last year after multiple major changes (about 3 years behind the ball). He got an exercise science degree (dear lord) and I believe he just does personal training for the time being.

  4. Some type of packaging engineer... he makes pretty good money. Maybe $85k or so in tier 3 city.

Most of my friends turned out quite alright... especially considering we were the high school pot heads.

What's kind of fucked is my buddy with no college degree is probably making more than a good chunk of my college friends who either got worthless degrees or just can't seem to land a decent job...

 

-A couple in ops for big name PE shops

-A TON of lawyers

-Twice that many engineers

-two sports pundits in print/on TV

-Harvard Ph.D. consulting in Medical for McKinsey. (Is it possible to be more stereotypical than this?)

-A couple others in interesting jobs like working overseas for the U.S. Dept of State, anesthesiologist, and film editing.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.

Found the silver spoon guy haha. Not hating but quite obvious. Only kids that grow up in wealthy areas have high school friends with these types of pedigress

Actually, nowhere near as much as you think. It was a highly selective school for the gifted and talented that didn't charge tuition, but is regarded as being as good a choice as Exeter or Horace Mann minus the parental connections. There was a kid with a Picasso in his house, and kids on food stamps. I grew up thoroughly middle- to upper middle class, and there is no way my parents could have swung what the tuition would have been.

1 – nurse 2 – bartender 3 –retired EMT/paramedic 4 – chief petty officer, US Navy [been in for about 25 years] 5 – nurse 6 – nurse 7 – psychiatrist specializing in children 8 – local radio personality, singer/performer

Don’t really see anyone about more than 1x or 2x a year at birthdays/reunions, we primarily stay in touch via Facebook. 1 is my bestie from age 13. Of the above, she’s the only one I’m in regular contact with, in that we text and talk on the phone – actually hung out with her this past weekend.

Seems like they are all very content, overall. Most are married with kids in their early 20’s. Several are divorced. 3, 7, 8 and myself never had kids. Don’t really know what they think of me, except for my bestie. They always appear to be happy to see me when I make it to a group function. 2, the bartender, always seems to make a point to say how timid and shy I was in high school and how I’ve supposedly “grown” a personality, LOL.

 

My core friend group from high school (around 12 of us) has stayed incredibly close throughout college and our year since graduation, close to the point where some of my college friends wish they had such good relationships with their high school buds. Some work in finance/consulting, some are engineers, one is in a FLDP type program, a couple work in the trades, and two are in law school. Pretty good all around, everyone is happy (at least happy-ish) with what they are doing. Nobody is a fuck-up in that group.

One of our crew, and I would say my best friend, passed away recently. Not to give too many details, but he died in some form of hiking accident while volunteering overseas. He hated his former job (consulting) and wanted to experience the world. He was so fucking happy when he left--yeah he wasn't making money on this journey but thats not the only thing life was about. In the wake of his loss, my friends have been incredibly comforting to both each other, our families who knew him very well (our moms are all really tight) and his family. It's really sad but it made us realize that shit like this can happen, so we will probably become even tighter as a result.

My top 4 friends from highschool:

-One was in the air force for 4 years to get his GI bill, and is now in college. Don't know what he is studying.

-One went into the air force and is making a career out of it- lives in Alaska and has a few neat hobbies

-One went into the national guard for his GI bill and is at some small college now

-One knocked a girl up, quickly married her, and works at some factory

With the exception of one really smart guy who works in futures trading, I'm the only one from my community who actually has some kind of career with upward trajectory. We'll see about the ones currently in college..

 

Most are dead or in jail.

I got rid of my high school relations a long time ago, but most live in or around NY since we grew up in the area. Not aware of anyone really setting the world on fire. Several are becoming doctors which is great, but an equal number are slinging crap RE or some other half baked product.

 

Don’t keep in touch with any of them except for 1 every now and then, which is is regional manager for a retailer. Most had kids and bounce around from shit jobs/ or got into hardcore drugs (one of my best friends which is now addicted to heroin) A handful are still in university as they are my peers. Almost all of them looked like they live to post on Instagram when I last checked over a year ago. Thankfully I deleted all that social media bullshit and surround myself with ambitious people.

 

Take this with a grain of salt, as I am likely too young for any of my friend group to have truly crashed and burned yet.

One works as an engineer making good money relative to his hours. Keeps saying he wants to start studying for his CFA, but never does. Apparently "finance is easy. I heard they value engineers more."

Another is a management consultant, and acts as if its he has the best job on the planet. I think I have heard this about 1000x times: "this is just practice for when I start buying companies." ... okay bud.

A few commercial bankers, a few corporate bankers, and a few investment bankers. Commercial guys hate their lives, Corporate guys want to be lifers, and the IB guys are all trying to exit.

One made the NHL. Married the hottest girl of our high school. (Funny story, she ignored him until it became evident he was going to make it, then surprisingly fell in love a year before he was drafted).

Another is on the poker circuit believe it or not. After travel he seems to make around ~50k? Don't really understand the end game here, but enjoyable lifestyle I guess! (Actually is it? Sitting around a table with a bunch of old jobless men? These aren't Molly's games we're talking about).

One if a chef jumping from kitchen to kitchen (gets in trouble too much).

The rest all live with their parents and work minimum wage jobs. A few took entrepreneurial swings and failed terribly.

A few are in law school, but not great ones, I wonder if that will be worth the investment......

Ex-girlfriend works at a brewery (really glad the 5 years she spent getting a chemistry degree was worth it :) ).

Anyways, can't wait for the reunion where half the girls have kids already!

There is more than one way to get there. I'd rather have 30 chapters than 3000 pages.
 

I will say that out of my large graduating class, the disparity between those who were successful in high school compared to afterwards was astounding.

Some of the teachers' pets pushing a 4.0 are now total burnouts. One had a full ride academic scholarship to a decent state school and flunked out after a year.

Some of the nobodies who didn't stand out one way or another are now killing it on either/both coasts.

This kind hearted preppy student council member is now a rapper acting like he's Straight outta Compton. He music is actually pretty good, but it's funny how he rhymes like he started from the bottom when in fact he was a spoiled kid from the burbs.

Many of the Varsity Athletes peaked during high school and now scrape by in the food/beverage service industry.

A Co-captain from the golf team is a felon who can't stay out of jail. Theft, grand theft, grand larceny and the like are his vice. He's spent more in vs. out of the sandbox to date. A recent article I read about him showed he swindled a model from Florida out of several hundred thousand.

A couple of the total smokeshows ended up with the badboy with a motorcycle and are now divorced, unsuccessful, fat, and bitter.

While there were some disparities; many students who did well in HS went on to do well in college and work great jobs. The cynic in me thinks the aforementioned examples are just funny and a way karma catches up to the vain.

 

I had sort of a dramatic drop in socioeconomic status going into my teen years after the main breadwinner in my family passed away so the outcomes from pre-13 peers and post-13 peers are pretty interesting to contrast.

Post-13 I went to a somewhat shitty public school in Scotland. something like ~60% (class of c.150 folks) of the class left at 16 to go onto further ed colleges, get jobs on oil rigs, get apprenticeships in trades and work in shops/hospitality jobs. The rest that stayed mostly went onto university with 1 person doing medicine, and a fair number (~10) doing law, traditional humanities and engineering/science. The rest do things like marketing or construction management or journalism or some other less academic subject. Only a handful of people ended up at 'top' universities. A few years on and some of the further ed college students did end up at university but people are largely not doing anything extraordinary with their lives. A somewhat higher than normal rate of teen pregnancy to boot.

Pre-13 I lived the typical bougie expat life at international schools and such. Pretty much everyone I went to school with from those years went to university very quickly (immediately after high school to after 1 or 2 gap years). A lot of top universities represented (Stanford, NYU Stern, USC Marshall, Oxbridge, Imperial, Edinburgh, Princeton, UT-Austin etc) and all are doing pretty well career wise too. Plenty of folks going into BB/EB banking, strategy consulting, medicine, petroleum engineering (expected considering the demographic of oil expat kids), top tech PM/SWE, trainee lawyers at top firms etc etc. No one has particularly fucked up with their lives or anything.

Also applied to boarding school/did summer programs and the peers from those demographics are pretty much uniformly ivy league/top tier university grads/students. Almost all in some form of prestigious job.

Really goes to show how much the world is rigged in favour of those with money.

 

For some reason WSO keeps the last comment you posted so excuse the double post. Went to high school in a lower income area and so far this is what I remember.

One guy is working at Deloitte and lives in DC.

A lot of people entered the medical profession, usually as nurses or pharmacists, cannot think of any doctors or dentists.

A couple entered the military.

 

Went to a top performing charter school that was 95% black kids and rest were Latino from low income families. Graduated with a class of 85 kids and we all went to really good universities and all of us are doing pretty well (we have an alumni meeting at our high school every January). I’m the only one in Consulting. Ton of law and med school kids. Only one had a kid but she’s married and works in Real Estate. Super happy to see us all survive college lol

 

Went to high school in a small blue collar city: -Mechanic (x2) -Manager of a home improvement store -Went to college, never had a job, still lives with parents (at 28...yeah) -Manual labor job at solar panel company -Engineer for the state government -Went to law school, but couldn't find a job requiring JD so has basic desk job -PhD student at prestigious institution

I never talk salaries with my HS friends but my guess is they are in the $40-60k range. It's not a glamorous existence but pretty standard for middle-America and can lead to a perfectly normal life. Some may end up in jail or get hooked on drugs, others may hit six figures. I'm a lurker resident physician (here to fantasize about the greener grass in finance haha). Based on conversations with my brother-in-law, finance, like medicine, is a bubble of generally more affluent people to begin with. Hence the greater perspective of things can get skewed. Nihilism can hit pretty hard when the repetitive reality of adulthood sets in for the vast majority of the public. Not that my HS friends are unhappy, per se, but I think many of them don't derive a sense of purpose or satisfaction from their work. I don't see that to the same extent in the high achievers who I interact with.

 

High school was in a small blue collar city... the school was in the "ghetto" of the area...

There are some who are engineer (3 that i can count).. the rest are insurance salespeople..construction..2 in jail on GTA.. rest no idea.

 

I was in Vegas during my HS reunion.

Most are married/settled down. Close people I know quit medicine (family sacrifice), the other two are heavy political players, one worked directly under Bill Gates, one Google (lifer), one works in Research in STEM.

Rest/most of them work in regular industries - a few quit IBD after 1-3 years. Others are professors at Kellogg, NYU, etc.

Life is interesting, right? I pick up whomever recognizes me on the streets or on FB, so it gets fun when we go shoot pool or go for drinks. I focus mainly with the crowd who are in tech/politics/finance/med/law from those is HS.

No pain no game.
 

No idea what the subpar are doing, I don't do social media so I don't keep up. I do know what my peers are up to.

  • Medical resident at top school (think Duke/Northwestern/UPenn) and other doctors
  • Navy Pilot
  • Harvard MBA program after corp dev at a top tech company following IB
  • Harvard Econ PHD
  • Various Engineers
  • Assistant District Attorney and other lawyers
  • Commercial banking guys (both middle office and front)
  • Nurses
  • Teachers
  • Pharmacists
  • Tech sales
  • Accountants

I went to a pretty middle of the road school. Just a lot of kids of immigrants (Vietnamese, Pakistani, Indian, Nigerian) that were pretty focused. I was not focused.

In terms of the circle of friends and the extras from partying and such it ranges from owning a couple of businesses, one running a Fortune 500, several CFO's and lawyers, and then all the way to bartending today, drugs, and in/out of jail/prison.

So in that regard I turned out pretty damn well but I was aware of who would move on and who would stay behind and never change. I spoke of that summer when I left for undergrad that I considered that a chapter in my life and that book was now closed and I was so ready for new beginnings. Don't get me wrong, HS was a blast and the only change I would make is I wished I had taken academics more seriously as my first semester was a rude awakening.

Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
 

I was supposed to grow up and be the loser, but here I am, possibly the most successful person from my highschool and group of friends. - A pair of twins who live in their mothers basement and run a semi-popular instagram account while getting stoned every night - One has been in college for 6 years part time, working retail the rest of the time. - A couple have OD'd - Plenty of drop outs who end up having a kid that they cant take care of - Most of the pretty girls from my HS got pregnant/became waitresses or bar tenders with nothing else really going for them - One actually became an MLB pitcher, so shoutout to him.

Either manual labor/trades or generic business roles, depending on how much money their parents had and their skill at sports.  Thankfully no tragedies or anything really bad. 

 

My valedictorian is an ordained minister, and the salutatorian a Cornell-trained doctor. The rest of my friends aren't really up to anything;  many didn't even go to college.  They've mostly got "regular", solid middle-class gigs (real estate agent, social worker, city bus driver, IT support, district manager at a retail chain) .  Not trying to flex but I had one of the "better" outcomes in terms of education, salary, and lifestyle. Most of them didn't even venture out our city.  Not that it's a contest. 

On a separate note, damn near every girl I had a crush on in high school is, to put it politely, not nearly as attractive as they were in high school, based on my facebook searches lol.  Some look outright haggard. Most are overweight.   I just don't get how you go from an attractive high schooler to almost hideous in your 30s.  It would take serious commitment to letting yourself go that much.  Not that I had a shot w/ any of them back then but still breathed a sigh of relief just the same.

Lol in all seriousness, this is so true. I looked back thinking if I was nuts have those crushes. I think it was common for girls who had looks that thought they could get through life with it, but then they go to college and its no longer the case and end up letting themselves go.

Array
 

I went to an exclusive private high school that was about a 60/40 split between very privileged kids that don't have any pressure to earn a living and hard working strivers from more modest backgrounds who have an intense drive/hunger to improve their lot in life.

Virtually 100% of my graduating class continued on with some form of higher education.

The vast majority are in some kind of upper middle class professional white collar job that requires going through a bunch of hoops to break into (finance, law, medicine, etc.) The ones who aren't are either working for their family business, doing art/creative stuff (bankrolled by their parents), or have become full-time mothers/homemakers. A handful of odd balls pursued entrepreneurship.

I keep up with a handful of my friends from high school, but different life stages can complicate things (e.g. if one party is single, while the other has a wife and kids, etc.) Pre-pandemic I would occasionally meet up with some of my friends from high school if we happened to be in the same city, but otherwise, it's been mostly group chats.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.

We get all caught up in the hustle and bustle, what are some of the peers you knew in your teenage years doing now?

Do you still keep in touch with them? Would you say they're generally happy with their career choice/lifestyle decisions?

And how about you? Would you say you turned out alright based on your group of friends you had when you were younger?

School days no.

University days yes, but a few not everyone wants to continue friendship links.

The ones that I am in contact with are doing well in their careers and families.

SafariJoe, wins again!
 

I went to a pretty run of the mill upper middle class suburban public school and hung out with other nerds, so nothing really interesting. Every single one of them (besides me) is married, most have kids, all work in pretty solid but unremarkable white-collar jobs (finance manager, graphic designer, healthcare IT consultant, etc). Wasn't in my direct friend group, but probably the biggest success story is a guy that's done really well in the pro/college coaching ranks (will probably get a prominent head coaching role within the next few years).
