Life plans..

[Mochachino]

Anyone have any plans in their life?

What is your goal, career wise or owning a house somewhere?

How are you going to acheive what you want?

Or do you see yourself as too young to think about long term plans yet, or just dont have any?

[Furio-Gazza]

im 21 & think about future plans all the time, but tbh i aint that arsed atm as nothing will happen with me been out off work,

soon as i start a new job i might start looking into the future plans more

[moxy89]

Im 21, have a decent job... however not what i want a career so moving out of that line of work... looking to buy a place next year.... then all i need is a Focus RS and my track saxo on the drive and life complete

[Piggie]

Currently saving for a deposit whilst im renting.

Plans are to buy a cheap house and do it up how i like over time. As long as it's liveable in then it'll do.

Marry at 30ish (at the earliest lol) then kids blah blah blah

Retire early although this is very very unlikely to happen.

Death. Lmao. Sorted. :y:

Im 19 atm and i know it makes me sad to even have a plan

EDIT: Once the house is ready a mint car but the possibilities are endless so i've as yet to even think about that.

[quikydan]

20 with 3 years of BTEC ICT qualifications and then decided to do uni which lasted 6 months. So my plans are to find a ICT Apprenticeship ASAP so i can stop working 40-60 hours at a newsagents. Once i've got this Apprenticeship sorted i wouldn't mind my own place and a nicer daily drive.

I do see myself as too young to think about long term plans just yet but ideally I would like to move out in the next 2 years :) Be it a house and a mortgage or renting a flat

My goal career wise was to get a job with somewhere like BMW or Jaguar etc

I had an interview 3 weeks ago and got myself a job with Jaguar Land Rover :y:

To achieve being able to move out i'm planning on working my ass off at JLR :p

Id rather live my life before the kids came. Messy holidays, lots of ladies etc etc.
Although i live alone im still a kid lmao.
But if your happy then that's what matters :y: each to their own.

OP yours then ??

it hasn't really changed anything for me! i feel like i have more of a purpose now. this little guy relies on me 100% and i shape his life. we still go out all the time, just take him with us :) buy everything we want. the only thing he stops me from doing is clubbing and getting pissed which i never did anyway :D you still rent and want a mortgage so youve still got a major responsibilty lol

[matt_vtr_15a]

I'm 22 and have 6 years experience in Architecture in commercial/industrial and especially food sectors with decent knowledge in domestic but we don't do much of that....

Been doing day release apprentiship since 16 - 22 (23 by the time i finish) which has been good for hands on experience as well as the degrees...

I am fully qualified next year as an Architectural Technologist!!

My plan currently it to move over to America (Miami), and rent a nice apartment with a friend who travels quite a lot..

She has done nothing but travel to places like Australia/Thailand/India & America for a few months at a time since she was 18-21 so she is a good person to go with as she will find a job to contribute to renting a place and definately up for the experience...

Plan is to get a working VISA and find a stable Architect job and ride it out and see what happens...Whilst I have no mortgage..

I will be selling my car to pay for flights and have some money in the bank for accomodation...

Thats my short term plan, I am also saving money at the moment to help set up my own 1 man business which will be small jobs for domestic purposes or extensions to industrial units which are feasable for one man to do...

Build that up and see where it leads, not looking to set that up till late 20's though when I am a lot more stable...

[Mochachino]

OP yours then ??

Im overly ambitous lol and youll think im a dreaming cunt :oops:

We can dream though, and if I work towards what I dream to be then even at a quarter of that il be happy with my life :)

Basically, I dont want to be tied down with a career.

At the moment im just getting my car sorted and to a tidy strong spec.

After that im saving to do a few courses, 360 excavtor oprator and other plant machinary, aswell as painting and decorating. I ee them as being good trades and skills to have with how our country is and there is quite a few opportunitys for them locally to me and offer an ok, not amazin wage of about £600 a week.

Once im into one of them jobs then il be saving and saving for a good few months. I live at home so not a great deal of outgoings. Taking advantage of that, setting up a few businesses with friends. Abit like an investor, and they dont need great capital to start. so invest money in starting a company up, let them work the business and I collect a cut in the profits aswell as working my daily job. theyre sorted for a job and Il be getting extra money.

Then save up, get a property abraud rent it out or holiday rent it out. Repeat the process with another property. Got my grandads proerpty in england for security.

thats as far as my plans got lol time to take my head out the clouds.

Fair enough. I tend to get drunk at home more than i go clubbing. But i would like to have my first kid with the 'one'. I know its rare now but as it's a plan may as well aim to do it proper.

If i decide ive made a mistake with renting i can go home. Shame Tesco don't sell babies so when they too old you can take them back! :P

Funny enough. Property investment was my dream to!

But i was trying to be realistic with my first post. However the dream would be as you said to earn a good wage through a decent property portfolio.(No boss, gettin up, late wages etc etc) O the joys of not working that is a dream!!!!

Hopefully my grandad will leave me enough money to set it up. Failing that its plan number one. Haha now i'll look as mad as you :y:

Stick to it, its possible!

Im currently saving for the two courses. So once I have them under my belt I can easily do the investment of starting up the two smaller businesses (it possible now but id rather enjoy the money on the car).

Id be happy at that stage to be fair! But with the security of the property in England il risk some saved money into property or another investment with great return. Once that starts and proves itself then il just repeat it!

Quite realistic for both of us id say! But for the time being its a dream untill it happens :p

Continue to get fucked and fucked up for at least another 10 years.

I trained in the Equine Sector, I'm now a nutritionist basically, and I started my exams to be a qualified teacher. I sacked them in though when i realised that my experience means more to people up here than £3k worth of bits of ruddy paper.

I now work 9-5 Mond - Fri, 3 nights a week in a club, and teach horseriding 2 - 3 hours a week. I enjoy teaching as a hobby, couldnt make it my full time job. shame because the money is AMAZING. up to £40 quid an hour for the level I teach.

I now also take on horses to train and compete - so next year I hope to buy a young horse or a weanling to bring on and sell, or keep for myself.

For the time being though, taking a year out, to work work work, get a new car, find my own place, and spend time with my other half, go on some holidays.

My life plan? find a way to make as much money as possible, even if i keep working 3 jobs. I'm a total workoholic!

Maybe get married before I'm 30 - dont want to look old and haggered in my wedding pics. As for kids.... Nah. This sounds really selfish but I am NOT ending up with a big gaping vagina and a stomach that looks like an elephants arse.... all wrinkly and saggy and stretched. If my husband (if there is ever one) wanted kids, we would adopt, or he could go shoot his load in someone else.

My life is for living, and I'll be bloody selfish if I want to be selfish

[delux]

Not spend 20 mins writing a section of a CV Application like some of the above :homme:

Get a permanent Job rather than contract

Blow my life savings on a car in 3 months

Enjoy owning a fully paid off 12K Car at 20

Sell car shortly after realising how much it costs to run

Wait till then and see whats going on

[Mochachino]

[Lacey_106]

Very nice! Where abouts? Apartment or full house :panic:

Well still shortlisting at the min, but I need to get a move on, I'm running out of time.

My search area is huge but it basically includes all along the M4 from middlesex to Hammersmith.

I'll be working in Hammersmith so it needs to be under 30 mins drive or hop on the tube.



Its fucking expensive though!

[matt_vtr_15a]

Property investment is definitely something I will get into, but to get the first house to sell on is the hardest part... inheritance is the easiest way unfortunately...

I have the background to do it so when the time is right I will, however it will be of a side venture alongside general architecture (which will provide with steady income)

Personally property development will be something I do when I want to get filthy rich and have the financial stability to do so..

A lot of people can ruin their lives thinking it is an easy ride...


And ploughing all their money into something which can't be finished due to lack of funds and can't be shifted....

[Oli_K]

Lucky to make it to the next day atm, nevermind life plans.

[Gandi699]

to live my life a quarter mile at a time

[Brettles1986]

to live my life a quarter mile at a time

I see what you did there :homme:

[0rang3peel]

I'm 24 in November, so I'm getting on a bit.

More and more of my friends are having kids, getting married and other tragic shit like that, it's a bit disappointing.

I want to continue sleeping around, messing about with friends while being financially ok. (a few quid more pm wouldn't go a miss).

I try not to plan, if you have plans and for some reason you do not achieve them you end up disappointed in yourself and in the world today, things happen that are usually out of your control.

I just live life one pay packet at a time, squeezing in as much travelling as I can.

[Lucas_VTR]

Im 19, 20 this year! I work as a medical technologist for gloucester royal hospital and cheltenham general hospital. Currently in my 2nd year of uni (one year left) and i will be qualified. Plan is to move to new zealand and work for a private healthcare organisation designing new medical equipment and prosthetic limbs. Either settle down with a woman out there or if by then im settled down take my family with me! Im a qualified electrician aswell so something to fall back on. Have 2 kids, nice big house and a yellow camaro on the drive and ill be sorted!

[moxy89]

gibbo do you actually run a company or self employed doing this ?? so many of my friend are i own my company when there a self employed gardener working for and by themselves

[Moke]

Would love to be a traffic cop tbh.

Other than that, not sure!

[Prickle]

Basically i take everyday as it comes.

[Moke]

Basically i take everyday as it comes.

...in your face?

[stevo1600]

Always liked the idea of being a traffic cop. But seeing devastating accidents would seriously effect the car I have, and I want quick cars until petrol runs out and we have to use some other gay fuel which will probably effect performance.

I'm 20 and I will be a millionaire one day. Either if i have to sell copied DVDs on the car boot, to running my own I.t business. I'll make it!!!

[MiniGibbo]

gibbo do you actually run a company or self employed doing this ?? so many of my friend are i own my company when there a self employed gardener working for and by themselves

I am self employed, going limited ive been braught up being told is a very bad idea.

I have no overheads, lads on the cards so basically they work when needed then go do other things when not.

You could say I'm more of a middle man. The only bummer is being vat registered as supplying gear bumps your turnover threw the roof :S

Do get nice tax returns though :cool:

[Jay_]

complete uni, maybe doing 6months on a cruise ship playing, depending on if the band is going well or not. If bands are going well stay in Bristol start making money. Earn money through drumming. Shag loadsa groupies, get a nice motor, nice woman, marry, die.

[Tontsy]

im pretty bang on with life at the moment...

there are a few things id like to achieve, which may seem silly to, well nearly everyone but it would give me something to talk about and laugh over lol. like ;
shredding the edges of the tyres on a bike, without touching the central width - so literally spend a very heavy couple of hours on a round about...

wouldnt mind abit more pay each month though, a couple hundred will suit me fine.

[logic_guy]

pure lies, your vag is a tattered bleeding smashed up old mess

I pissed my self laughing... Sorry Nicole.

Buy a house. Do it up & sell it on, make a tidy profit.

Do this process to a few houses till you have some money in your back pocket then buy a 'Investing property' that you can rent out. As far as i'm aware, i have no in herritance. My girlfriends Nan is quiet very well off though so that will be a bonus. :y:

After a few more years of saving, get another property.

I'd like to have my own business. Ideally sitting on my arse selling stuff online. :cool: or getting carpenters to work for me.

Get married, have kids. Have a nice house (4 bedrooms) and a iPad and a bouchion frise dog :cool:

[Prickle]

This.

You wrote basicully the ideal life IMO until the end you mentioned the stupid dog and ruined :homme:

blatantly should get a german Shepard ;)

[Damask]

i basically want a job where i write or talk or fix things, and dont do the same shit every day.
i dont care where i live as long as theres a pub close by and a nice car on my drive :)

[hellovts]

had it all mapped out at 19, it was smashed to pieces.

21, dont really care where i end up to be honest as long as im happy with my life but the foreseeable future is to complete my MA degree in law. (will be 23/24 when this is completed) then i'll see where i end up.

[Hatcha]

Dont know what i want to do at all :(

Hopefully go to uni, i've considered either Maths, psychology or sociology at uni, but have doubts about each of them..

Also considered the police but the way the country is atm it will be nigh on imossible to get in in the next few years..

Would also like to move back to Africa buuut i don't think that will be anytime soon, i would rather go after a good few years of working and saving.

[logic_guy]

You wrote basicully the ideal life IMO until the end you mentioned the stupid dog and ruined :homme:

Its always what i wanted, and i very possible... just be careful with your money. My old boss is doing this atm, but he has just had 2 kids come along and halted him in his tracks lol.

I'm looking to buy a £100K house as my first house. Do it up, sell it on for maybe £125K.. Either use the difference to pay the mortgage off or use it to decorate the next house or use it to add to the savings and buy another house...

And those dogs are totally awesome! lol :y: The best thing is... they don't need walking, so that means i can sit on my arse even more :drink:

[MiniGibbo]

It's just a shame the country crashed, no more 100% mortages with no need to tie your own house or anything into it :(

Property devlopement is much harder than it looks.

Be very nice if it all came to be though, living off the rent of your portfolio of property's :cool:

[logic_guy]

IMHO, i think its best that you put down a 20% deposit for a mortgage (me and the g/f would split it, 10% each)

That way, you have already paid off 20% of the house's value (1/5 of the value). The mortgages would be less money too.

I'm only 20, 21 in November but i want to be left home by 23/ 24. I guess by that time the housing market would be sky high again and we'd e out of the rescission. It would be all hunky dory for the next 10 years until you hit another rescission. Thats when i would take big advantages on savings to put towards houses and snap them up.

Being a carpenter. Doing all the referb work would be a doddle. I have experience in painting and decorating too and a little basic plumbing. I'd feel confident to wire in a few new plug sockets and lights too. So that will cut costs.

[Dannii]

Well, isnt all this just inspiring...

Its pretty hard to plan ahead when you currently stack shelves for a living!

but as long as i eventually get a career in something im happy with, or an office job that pays well and lets me wear a suit ill be sorted. ;)

although i do plan to own a Jenson Interceptor and a Nissan GTR. even if it means stacking shelves for many many years.

This site gets more & more like 4chan by the day!
