Ha ha, well said.
I am toying with the idea of getting an expensive big motorbike in the new year. It won't make me "poor", but I'll be fairly hard up. My worst fear would be to get it and write it off before I had paid it off (I'd only be able to get 3rd party fire and theft insurance on it- fully comp is obscenely expensive).
Isn't there "benefit" in Germany? I lived on less than the rate of benefit (aside from rent) a lot of the time when I was a student.

Monoid,
it will only make you stronger in the long run.
Just play your cards right....don't stress yourself too bad (easy to say, hard to do i know i know i know).
Give it a few days to settle in and try to allow yourself to do something fun that day when it really kicks in....if it hasn't already.

I'm in the same boat - I am about to (finally) graduate from college at the age of 26 with a Masters of Art in Philosophy in a month after I pass my third semester of Spanish. I've recently been down to the Career Services Office and taken personality tests and Career Interest Tests. I'm so fucked, everything I'm interested in I'm not qualified (at all) to do (such as musician, artist, architect). I want to shoot myself in the head.

Hey, I'm not what you call a "worker". I'm a fucking bum. Ever read that paper called "The Abolition of Work"? I basically agree with the concept of that 100% I want to win 100 Billion dollars in the lottery and spend my life doing what I REALLY want to do. I just don't want to have a job that I dread going to everyday. (I've had those)

er 'teachers' college' is just a general term for getting whatever degree you need to qualify you to teach. i think highschool would be okay, but i'm probably deluded.

I was poor for 3 years studying, this year I'm poor because I lose the money I earn on paying off debts, and I expect to be poor for the next 4 years doing a graduate-entry degree. By 2008 I will be approximately £35,000-£40,000 in debt. I take some consolation from the fact that I will be a doctor at the end of it. ^_^

i'm afraid of losing job. The salary is funnie for europe but here it affords food at least, paying some rent for the flat I share, and i can even put some money aside for serious needs.. I buy nothing except food, and cheap clothes - very seldom.

It does suck being poor... especially when you have expensive hobbies. Just tough it out, and quit the fucking drugs 'till you can get back in the game.
I'm unemployed, and I plan on being so all summer, my idiotic choice... it's going to be the best summer ever... this is bad for my future, but I never worry about that.
