Where do you see yourself in five years?

Considering the opportunities you have right now and where you are in life, how do you think things will change in five years?

I'll be graduating high school next May. I'm going to pack up the car and head out west that summer. Going to bum it in Jackson or Bozeman for a year and see how things pan out from there. If I can find good jobs in the summer, I'll just stay there. Otherwise, college is a good back up plan.

How about you, NS?

Hopefully I'll have a job I'm stoked about.

Also, hopefully I'll have met someone awesome, gotten married and be working on building a family.

If that doesn't pan out, I'll be doing more travelling.

The amount of people that have asked me this question is way to many to count. As I get older and older, I find less ways to answer this.

I hope so.

That's the best option with my highschool performance.
At least it's not $20K in student debt.

Being that kind of sketchy has been living in some shack at the bottom of the hill. Building parks or wandering aimlessly while yelling at families trees and lift towers that get in my way.

I will be 2 years complete with med school. And have started my own practice as a plastic surgeon.
Hopefully my first client will be chubz and I can help rid him of those pesky man tits.

Just need to be a richer version of myself and I'll let the chips fall where they may. Get better at my sports betting sell more tickets maybe drop an app or some other business venture.

Will try and take 3 ski trips a year East coast beat sauce isnt' enough and the hills are too far to day trip from Boston. Pre-Christmas pow trip wherever good has snow, March Tahoe college basketball betting and pow trip, and one in the middle and I'll be good. If I can add in not being broke ass in the summer things will be lovely. Need to buy a boat pronto living 2 blocks from the ocean and I really really need a private golf membership desperately.

Realistically no idea honestly.

Hopefully not burnt out from the ski industry. Id like to finally get some good opportunities working with a place/places that are a good match for me. It doesnt have to be anything major just some place with less friction would be nice.

Id like to keep traveling to new places. Keep seeing a shit ton of music.

Im hoping to have a house or be close to buying one.

Hopefully I finally start my rail building company Ive been talking about for almost a decade now. Don't really care about that being "successful" just something Im passionate about doing.

Hopefully no more injuries/medical set backs and living somewhat healthy ish.

A relationship would be cool as well but never really been in one so the likelihood of that changing in 5 year, who knows.

Not really "where I see my self" but some goals and some maybes.

Sitting on my own property either outside of Bozeman or in Ennis, still working on chairlifts but further up the departmental ladder. Hopefully not working on some of the same old shifty lifts though.
