How are you managing to do that? I know teens do that, but they have parents paying while they try to "find themselves" and parents find their money going away.I'm 34. I left my job a couple of years ago to go to college, but I'm still not sure of a major lol
I've been living off my savings. I don't have a social life which helped me save up money at my last job. But my money is going to run out in a month or 2 and I'll need help w/ funds.How are you managing to do that?

Are you planning to become a professor when this is over?I'm 31, almost 32. I'm a Ph.D. student, majoring in History. I've been in school almost constantly since I was four years old.
Have a nice day,

Yep. I will never leave school. :yesAre you planning to become a professor when this is over?
I think my brother had a similar view, holding the title of more degrees from the University of Wisconsin -- Madison than anyone else ever. There are about a dozen who come in one degree short of his record, but some of them are dead which takes them out of the running to beat him.I will never leave school.

I guess we all have different ideas of fun. School definitely isn't my idea of fun. And where would I go next with a BS in finance. Ironically, UW-Madison offers a masters program in securities analysis so that one can learn to pick investments and become a manager of a mutual fund, pension fund, or hedge fund. It's ironic because everything taught in undergrad finance courses tells you that markets are efficient and that such active management is a fool's errand, yet I guess you're supposed to forget all that in grad school. Then one can go on to get a PhD in finance and endlessly study market anomalies that show the market isn't really efficient, but that aren't at all likely to allow you to beat the market on a risk adjusted basis, so you can have a ton of education and like so many financial economists -- including Nobel laureates -- conclude that it's best to simply invest in a diversified collection of index funds. Boy, that's a lot of work to come to such an exceedingly simple answer.If they keep giving me money to keep learning and teaching, then why not?
