How do I start my life?

Question

I'm a college sophmore. I know what major/career I want, but other then that I'm clueless about how to be independent. Right now, my parents are supporting me and they always coddled me. So I feel have very few life skills. Where do I start? What should I learn? How should I learn it?

I'm female.

Answer 1

It would help to know if your male or female.

If your a male, one day you may wish to marry a girl who appears sweet as apple pie and cute as can be. Don't let feelings of love overcome good common sense.

You need to set yourself up so as to protect yourself as much as possible from the possibility of a divorce down the road. Yes, if you are a man, you will get a continuous and painfull raping for years to come, especially if you have kids, in court if your marriage ends in divorce.

Even if she says that she wants nothing at all from you and you should just quietly go your own seperate ways, once a lawyer is done with her she will have become a money grubbing greedy little bittch, the likes of which the earth has never seen before.

Set yourself up NOW so that you will be protected later. Your chance of surviving a marriage is only about 50/50. That's not any kind of deal that a business man would enter into by risking his own money. It's very financially risky for a man to get married or to get a woman pregnant.

If your a woman, set yourself up so that you won't have to ever depend on any man in case your marriage goes sour, your husband becomes disabled, or he just turns out to be a bum.

Avoid anyone who insists on sex before marriage.

Never do or say anything that you would not do or say in front of your mother, wife, bad cop looking to cause some innocent person grief, or pastor.

Get a financial advisor. Start now in preparing for retirement later. You can be set up nicely for old age if you start early. It's not how old you are that determines when you no longer have to work, it's how much money you have.

As for what kind of work you want to do, if you go for the money, you can get more of what you want and do more of what you want to do.

There is a saying for men. "The tomato you get is directly proportional to the lettuce you pick." What's that mean? It means that the more money you make/have, the larger the selection of women you can pick from. That's right. Women are drawn to money like moths to a porch light in the summer time.

Never be flashy. To protect what you have from being taken by others, don't reveal to others what you have. Drive a car that attracts little attention. It can still have all the bells and whistles on the inside but not show it on the outside. For example, a large bodied Chevy can be just as nice as a Cadillac on the inside and ride just as nice without drawing attention.

Live in a comfortable but modest home that doesn't scream, "Rich guy lives here".

Learn to cook. There are loads of cookbooks that have recepies for one or two.

Read the tags on your clothes to learn how they should be laundered.

Learn to sew on a button.

Learn to be organized.

Pay your bills on time.

Do without many things that bill you monthly.

Learn to fix the simple things on your car.

Have a simple tool kit for the home that you know how to use.

Always do good. Never do bad. Forgive others but never allow yourself to be sucked into a situation where you could be victimized by them a second time. Often times, family members are the worst at taking advantage of you. They play on your sense of duty and on guilt to manipulate you. Read some of the questions in Yahoo answers if you don't believe it.

Never enter into a business partnership with anyone else. It makes enemies of good friends and family members.

Learn to change your own flat tire.

Trust in God and go to church.

Live your life like it's your last day on earth and you will wake up before the Lord to answer for all your thoughts and deeds that you did today but, plan for tomorrow.

Keep a journal that will be passed on to your kids and grandkids. Make sure that how your life is recorded will make your kids and grandkids proud to talk about you.

Vote Republican.

Say your prayers at night before bed.

Best Wishes

Here's a very small part:

.....They date for a few months. He never made any move towards commitment but she brought it up occasionally. For him, this was a casual but pleasant relationship. For her - as he was to find out - it was part of a life-changing series of events that she was planning very carefully.

Four months into dating, he gets the “I’m pregnant” talk. She’s going on and on about how the condom must have broke and now they really need to think about getting married “for the baby”. She’s positively giddy. She has a baby in her and she thinks she’s going to have a good meal ticket (him) to go along with her new 7lb annuity.....
