Famous People Who Were Rejected From College

College Graduates And Career Choices
Oh and stay away from garbage insurance/financial planning jobs. These are bad. If you are 22 and being courted by a company to be a ‘financial planner’ it simply means they want you to bug all your friends and family about their shitty life insurance policies. You aren’t Gordon Gecko and you aren’t managing a hedge fund, no matter how cool it might sound at first.

I occasionally end up in some sort of office setting for meetings . . . and it scares the hell out of me and reminds me that if I don’t keep hustling, I will have to go back to that lifestyle. That’s all the motivation I need.” Continue reading

I Left Medicine And Started My Own Jewelry Line
Why change?
It’s a much more flexible lifestyle, I get to be creative in the designs, materials, promotional materials, the method of doing business. I get to create the whole thing just the way I want it. Not that it’s easy, but I feel very passionate about it and much more fulfilled in being able to be creative and open to many possibilities in my work. I also get to talk with lots of other very creative and inspired people in my day-to-day work, which I find motivating.
