    No more music for you, sir?
    im in the interdisciplinary department, where you basically combine two minors to make your own major. Im doing music business (music theory/history + marketing/management). its a great path, but looking back on when I started in fall 2009, I regret not going straight into music production. although I did learn a lot from being in film and communications.
    yeah, over the next year I'm taking classes for production. So stoked. Hoping I learn basic shit soon so I can try and intern at Atomic Garden Studios with Jack Shirley. He's recorded for Deafheaven, Grayceon, Punch, tons of other Deathwish Inc. bands

    I dont care about the diploma... nor do I care if you post it up. Im more interested in the other question you didnt answer. Is your mom pissed? or supportive? Or are you still thinking of trying community college? for reals - Community college is like 100x better than high school.

    No college is the last place I'll end up. It's a waste of time. There's absolutely nothing I want to go for. I could go for music sure, but that don't get you signed. It's pointless. 

    And she she don't care, she completely supports me wit music and understands the passion I have for it.

    sounds like you have a good situation going at home. Hope you appreciate that support... I think that level of support isnt that common from your average parent.

    I'd imagine your stomach and bald surface areas would be at least triple.

    Thanks. I speak middle age white reddit. I'm not experienced in hood speak. (If I was Todd, I probably would have phrased this differently)
    let me burst your bubble here by telling you to end it. don't even know what // means

    401 k are a good investment and I'd have one if I had a job that offered it, I'm not dumb
    Still, I'd have money in gold as well if I had extra income no doubt about it

    I'll bet if I talked to a financial expert, he'd tell me I need to stop investing in my retirement accounts... Or at least cut it down to the minimum I  need to get the full company matching. He'd probably tell me I need to be putting more money into non retirement investments like gold or stocks or whatever. But Im not a financial expert, and Im kinda stubborn about people telling me what to do with my money. I mean I like getting good advice, but every financial analyst I've ever talked to are like high pressure sells. When I feel like you are pressuring me about investing, I get convinced you are trying to take advantage of me by making yourself rich, so fuck off.

    I kinda giggle when people talk about gold as an alternative to our potentially failing dollar. Basically because gold is just as useless as money when it comes down to it. It's not even rare. Same with jewels. Our monkey-like ancestors valued both because they didn't have science to tell them where they were in the ground and they basically just liked shiney stuff a lot. The only truly valuable things on earth are water and air. Which is funny in itself because we have no problem selling off our springs to Nabisco and letting companies talk us into deregulating emissions.

    You save up air and I'll save up gold, good luck to that

    My point is that saving up at all is ridiculous if you really think the dollar will fail

    I don't agree.. Paper money has failed countless times and what was left at the end? Gold
