We all know University is a fucking shithole in terms of education standards and information presentation/delivery, its a business construct not a learning environment blah blah blah etc.
Do people usually graduate on time? Its a fucking pain in the ass walking through this pile of hot coal known as University, feels like absolute dogshit subjecting myself to this ridiculous scam, yet its essential to get
>Muh degree >Muh employability
And CS major here.
Sigh it just feels like a fucking chore to give a shit and play by their rules, I love the subject itself but when you put University in to the equation it ruins my passion.
tldr: How to put up with Universities bullshit

University is just a sure path to mediocrity.
Those who do big things rarely depend on it. So if you plan on doing big things skip the schooling and employment track. This is a self-sorting system. People that are going to make it without schooling usually see through the system and have a plan to bypass it.
if you don't have a plan to get what you want yet you might as well stick to the program and do the chores necessary to gain employment. It's less risky than striking out on your own, that's a fact.

>Less risky This is literally the only reason why im in University, motivation out of fear. I'd obviously leave if I was confident and sure about how to find my own leeway but then again, who is at this age? Sigh im just stuck in an endless cycle
Getting a degree generally does find employment, albeit a very standard one, not sure what so retarded about that, are you even in University?
Im in CS and I like anime, and this is somehow a negative connotation? Please explain im not up to date with the latest lingo

>I'd obviously leave if I was confident and sure about how to find my own leeway striking out on your own is never a sure thing.
it's a risk you become more willing to take as you get older and have more experience and thus confidence.
in which case Uni is an excellent way to get a head start on that experience and employment only adds to that.
but make no mistake, employees don't get rich. Upper middle class if you're wise and lucky, but never wealthy.
Wealth comes from ownership, and that's always a risk.

Ive always had a long term interest in finance (particularly equity stocks) but I am by no means experienced, i'd like to try putting my own money on the line and see how that turns out, but the thing is apparently after University if theres a large gap (as small as one year apparently) between graduation and your job application thats deemed suspicious and undesirable by employers and they ask you such questions as "Why have you had such a long term of unemployment". This sorta forces me to apply straight away and get a few years of job experience before I try anything on my own that I'd like to do, I guess this alludes to the "I had dreams when I was younger too" path where people lose their interest in life, become jaded and never do the things they actually liked to try when they were younger just to be 'safe' and guarantee their financial stability.
I guess the problem stems from people taking life too seriously - that its some sort of hi-score game where you *shouldnt* fuck up and do anything unorthodox else you'll be rejected by the commercial world.
Idk I just kind of vomited my ideas, any thoughts? Im clueless about life, nothing seems logically game winning and makes success seem like luck

>Ive always had a long term interest in finance (particularly equity stocks) ultimately that's still giving your ownership to someone else to manage.
which is fine in its own way but probably not a great way to become wealthy either. You're assuming all the risk and taking none of the responsibility for success...
when I speak of ownership I don't mean buying into someone else's brilliant scheme to take your money and maybe pay it back. Ownership is investing your money into your own plans.
Buying stock is just one step above employment, you're still betting on someone else's horse.

>that its some sort of hi-score game where you *shouldnt* fuck up and do anything unorthodox else you'll be rejected by the commercial world. also you'll learn that fucking up is a normal part of success.
nobody wins all the time. Winners learn from their mistakes and move on. That's all. Don't be afraid to fail, it can only be so bad.
