Things You'll Need:
- Decent credit
- Money
- Time
- A job you hate
- A hobby
- Internet
- A mailbox
- A group of opinionated friends/acquaintances
-
Step 1
Don't ever determine your long term goals, and if for some reason you think you have a few good ones in mind, throw six extra ideas in there so that you won't know what to do.
-
Step 2
Apply to a few colleges or jobs that you are well suited for in cities across the country.
-
Step 3
In the mean time, work at a job you hate, attempt to monetize some of your hobbies, think of five to ten good reasons to stay right where you are, play the lottery, and enter a bunch of contests with really great prizes (preferably real estate near one of those cities you applied to school/work in), and fall in love with a house priced just right thanks to the recession.
-
Step 4
Watch the acceptance or offer letters roll in, be two steps and a little cash short of landing your dream home, change your major or career field, mastermind a plan to work from home and make as much as you do at your crappy job, but fall short on the cash-flow and end up working twice as much for the same amount of money, get fired by your advertiser, beg small town managers for work, and have a large, opinionated group of people around you who are equally divided on whether you should stay put or head for the hills.
-
Step 5
Repeat steps one through four as sanity returns.
