Next year I will be starting college, and after that my future is all up in the air. My plan is to hopefully get a job right after graduating, slowly move up within the company and become CEO and live the high life. Chances of that happening? slim to none.
I'm guessing my future might go a little something like this: Graduate college, move back in with the parents, get a job, and stay at that for the rest of my life, or at least until retirement. It's not my dream route, but it's not entirely made up either, it is the route that both my parents followed once they graduated college. It's not because I have grown up watching their lives and thinking "I wanna be just like that some day" It is because they are providing to me the same opportunies they were provided when they were my age.
Both my parents come from upper middle class families, and were able to attend big10 schools and graduate and get jobs that they have basically stuck with since then. It is rare that someone will move up a class from their parents, I wish it would be me, but I'm going to have to win the lottery if i want that to happen..
