It is not easy as i thought

I didn't know all about life when I was younger. I have huge dreams; I want to be wealthy, to own a large house with multiple cars and motorcycles, to have a lot of money and travel the whole world. Now that I'm 20, I understand it's not as easy as I thought it would be. The most essential thing to me is that I can survive, that I have food to eat, and that I have a place to relax. I still aspire to become wealthy soon; I will try and try again until I die. Are you rich or also dreaming like me?

I am forty-two, so I no longer dream. When I was your age, though, I did have big dreams, and I wanted to have enough money to always be able to take care of my parents.

@Imsorry9 It is inevitable that reality sets in, and you realize things aren't going to turn out like you thought right away, but that doesn't mean your dreams can't still aim high. Why not start with thinking about aiming for basic needs, and then dreaming more from there? What about the ultimate dream of having enough to have one extremely nice car, and one amazing motorcycle. You could end up with enough money not to be filthy rich, but to live more than comfortably for the rest of your life. You will be happier when your dreams are more attainable. Twenty is too young to give up on dreams, but old enough to realize when they need to be adjusted. Whatever happens, I wish you all the success in the world.

@AmbiePam I don't think 20 now is too young,our life span getting lower and lower. You're correct in every statements you said. As long i am happy,have family love and able to eat 3 times a day i will consider it as my success. Thanks to you

Things will get worse before they get better. I'm half-joking but if you keep on striving perhaps you'll accomplish your goals.

@Imsorry9 Hi, is this Shavkat that wrote this. By the way 20 is very young and you have so much time to figure things out and make money if you can. I am not young anymore and cannot afford to buy anything so have to rent.

@Imsorry9 Hi there. Did you change your profile name and not your picture? You are very young at the age of 20 and can still find a way to become wealthy. I am too old now and just want to be able to raise my cat and have peace and quiet and have our Sabbaths and holidays at my age. I wish I had money so could buy a nice place and not have to rent all the time.

@Imsorry9 I would not say I have a happy life or enjoy my life. So you changed your profile name and use that one now.

I was a working student at your age. I paid for my tuition until I graduated, paid for my meals and lodging etc. I was just on survival mode at that time. I didn't have savings but I didn't have debts either. I'm a lot older now and perhaps wiser. I no longer have grand dreams but I've learned to save money and invest my money. Hopefully by the time I retire my children won't have to spend for my daily needs. Good luck on your plans.

@Imsorry9 I wish the government would standardize the minimum wage everywhere in the Philippines. It would've been fine if prices of commodities were not as costly.

Here in my place it is hard to find a work as a student. Also minimum wage here in my province is very low it is only around 9$ but it's better than nothing.

I am not rich but I realize that I want to rich and live a huge house, I would have to work extremely hard as a writer and hope for the best in terms of success which has not happened in terms of being rich.
