What are your career aspriations?

Fortune30 · 03-03-2018 3:57pm #1

Basically what are your career aspirations, and how do you plan to achieve them. Or if you're a good way into your career have you achieved your goals.

I'm 22, about to graduate college with a computer science degree. My long-term goals are to run a Digital Agency Consultancy, and a Software Consultancy. Ideally under one holding company, but operating as separate entities. Short to medium term goals are to work in various companies, learn how business work, and constantly build a network of connections.

I would also like to start a Real Estate investment company. Buying properties under a company name, and constantly reinvesting the profits and equity gained into new properties to keep the cash flowing.

An Aston Martin.

Oh, career! Nah, been there done that. Life is so much better without a career.

Just back from the rave thread and it brings back some great memories.
Do you know what, I wouldn't mind having the time, talent, equipment and know how to throw together a few kick ass dance tunes.
That would be my ideal career at this moment.

All going well I will be unemployed in april. First time in 24 years.
Planning a nice long holiday and then in may will sit down and figure out what I want to do. Something different hopefully.

To be financially comfortable and happy in whatever I end up doing.

Nothing worse losing sleep over the thoughts of going into work the next morning. Or working with arseholes who make your life miserable.

Im going to work my way up to be King of Ireland.

Once there, my first decree will be to cut State financial aid to citizens who have 5 or more criminal convictions.

My second decree will be to cease immigration.

My third will be deport any person who does not have a minimum of four generation ancestry in Ireland.

First things first...

Cancel out the Real Estate company, unless you have stacks of cash at your disposal when no one else has and a contact in Nama you will already be losing. The Real Estate pump is already way up the hill.

Concentrate on the other two companies in your area of expertise, because even if they are successful the real estate crap has the very real possibility to collapse everything else.
