I am very unlikely to be 15, and I am a man
No, it means you do not use the act you’ve already put in money/time to justify not changing paths. That money/time is gone no matter what. Choosing a new path should not be vetoed because you’ve already spent the time on something else.

Hmm…what does that “C” in CCitizen stand for? “Cyborg”?
What are you going to do when your parents are dead?
Thank you – I am sensitive to flames and insults.
California.
You have a PhD in Math and interested in social studies. You know, math is a pretty useful tool that most people don’t understand very well. You are, shall we say “fluent” in math versus most people that don’t “speak” math. Did you ever consider something like using statistical models for social studies? Nate Silver and 538 might be a role model.
You can use math as a tool to work on the stuff that interests you. Armchair doper analysis, but seems like the depression is the bigger issue.
Congratulations. I understand the California passports are particularly stylish.
Idle Thoughts, don’t suppose there’s a “rubbing it in our faces” exception to that rule?
Sorry.
What do the Jewish intelligensia usually do in such circumstances?
I wish I knew what that was and how I get a membership form. Was it like Hogwarts and I would’ve just gotten a letter? Bummer.
No idea about the so-called “Jewish intelligensia” but I thought the stereotypical Jewish mother wants to see her son succeed on his own, so that she can brag about his achievements to all her friends. Also, get married and provide her with grandchildren. (Although really that’s true about all mothers, not just the stereotypical Jewish ones.)
Not remain into his late 30s or early 40s financially and emotionally dependent upon her. That’s nothing to brag about.
Skipping past all the angst and possible shadow-dancing, I think the answer to the question is an unqualified yes - millions of people succeed every day in jobs they hate.
It may be the greatest tragedy of our time. Choose a career by the current salary projections or some other lame convenience, and spend 10-40 years doing something you loathe.
Actually, doing a job you loathe isn’t a problem as long as you manage to find fulfillment somewhere else. If your job sucks but pays well enough, perhaps it frees you to spend time on your hobby or other passion on the weekends, or to volunteer during your holidays.
Yes, that job was U Haul.
I dislike math so much I am not even sure I want to suceed in it. I am not sure I can succeed.
But I just pretend to work and do some assignments in order to keep getting pocket money.
My parents hope that I can become a high paid professional. But can I? Should I?
If you’re already fortysomething and still living at home, they’ve probably given up on you.
