  • No it doesn’t. Didn’t for me. I lived in a twenty year old Ford explorer for almost a year pursuing mine. Didn’t succeed or make it big, but I wouldn’t have traded it for the world. Not every dream relies on college loans, dude. Not if you’re an artist.

    I’d go so far as to say man, many dreams people have don’t require a degree.

    And if they do? DO IT ANYWAY. I attended two years of college for film. Never got a career out of it. Still paying off my debt. Still don’t regret ANY of it.

    Still getting by on the strings of my butt hairs in my 40s. Still wouldn’t take any of it back.

    Never sucked the love for either dream out of it. Did I get depressed? Sure. Did I go through a lot of shit and a lot of disappointment? Definitely. I’m two years out from failing in my latest attempt at pursuing one of my many dreams. You couldn’t pay me all the money in the world to take it back.

    You’re speaking to me… about me. About my experiences and telling me how it made me feel. Sorry my dude, I can’t agree with you.

    Take those chances. The memories are worth it. The stories are worth it. The lessons you learn along the way are definitely worth it, homie















  • This person who is insisting we punish low level criminals because they all will turn into high level criminals needs to stop playing GTA, pay a bill or two in life, and realize that poverty creates desperation, and in fact, locking up “low level” criminals actually exposes them to the more hardened ones who have turned it into a lifestyle.

    If you don’t get thrown in a cage with dangerous people and treated like an animal, your odds of rehabilitation skyrocket.

    Exposing people to violence, punishment and harder criminals is the least productive way to rehabilitation.
