Where should you be in life at the age 22 or around your 20s?

[Anonymous]

Where should you be? Like should you have a job already or Have a good career already? What if you don’t have any of those things and you don’t even know what to do with your life yet, like at all

[Rob70]

AT that age you should be exploring your options. You need to try new things and find a career that you enjoy doing. Don't get caught in a trap of a job because it is money. Find something you like and then try being the best at it. You will find out fast that a job you love is much better than going to work and hating it.

What if you don’t have a Job?

[Asker]

what if you haven’t went to college yet? And still rely and live with your parents, and already 22

[Birdlegs]

You’re still figuring stuff out it’s okay just have a source of income for the time being and enjoy being 22

[Asker]

What if you don’t have a Job?

[Birdlegs]

I’d recommend getting one

[Asker]

Why?

[Birdlegs]

You are an adult at this point so you should have at least have some sort of income for necessities and so you won’t be dependent on others

[Asker]

But I’m only 22, what if you haven’t went to college yet? And still rely and live with your parents

[Birdlegs]

Then definitely get a job. I’m In college and I play a sport here and I have a job because I want to save money for the future. You should have your future in mind because rn you’re doing nothing towards it. Even if you don’t know exactly what you’re going to do you should prepare yourself

Making at least 60k a year.

Or going to college for something that actually matters. And not waiting your parents money.

Or finishing up your trade or apprenticeship.

[Asker]

What if you are doing none of that?

[Opinion Owner]

What's your job?

[Opinion Owner]

And what's your goal

[Asker]

I mean, for me, I want to work in entertainment or like Acting, Singing and performing

[Asker]

I don’t have A Job

[Opinion Owner]

What steps are you taking towards that?

[Asker]

I don’t know, literally I don't know, I have no idea what to do or even where to start

[Opinion Owner]

You ever thought about filming independent?

[Asker]

What do you mean by that?

[Opinion Owner]

Build up your brand. Have you studied acting? Do you know how to shoot a shot for a camera. Do you know anybody who knows how to use a camera?
You need to fund your dreams somehow? Or take a risk.
Have you paid for singing lesson acting lesson even if it's just once or twice a week

[Asker]

I took Acting for 3-4 years in high school, but i suck at doing anything independently, everything i try to do alone turns out absolute garbage lol

[Asker]

Also singing lessons cost a lot of money, my dad would never pay for them

[Opinion Owner]

Work part time. To pay for you singing lesson. If you suck you gotta learn.
No one gonna fund your dream except you. You can learn to film on 2 years.
Team up with people start putting your stuff on social media and make money off it.

[Asker]

See there’s the thing if you ask for help from other people they always Say No and leave you behind and Ditch you, that’s why I’m starting to just not ask for help from anyone anymore

[Opinion Owner]

Find people at the bottom. And work up with them.
But you need to know enough to do. it your self. If they do leave.
Once your at the top you have leverage.

[Asker]

That’s not exactly Easy, My only choice is to do stuff my self which is impossible

[Asker]

What if you’re only 22 and you haven’t went to college yet? And still rely and live with your parents

[Opinion Owner]

I'm watching people do it by themselves right now in your age bracket or older.
Your not hungry enough. And don't wanna work for it.

[ChiPaPa]

Everyone has their own path, dude.

[Asker]

That is not helpful at all

[Asker]

I asked for a personal opinion or what you thought not just a straight up thing

[ChiPaPa]

My straight up thing, is my view on this. You're not being receptive at all. There isn't one surefire way forward for everyone. Some go to college, either right off, get their bachelor's or associates, stop schooling, others keep going, others jump right into the work force. It's ultimately up to you.
