    Goals for the decade?

    I am curious on what goals people have for the next decade...

    My goals, as of now, are to attend Georgetown Law School, to become a patent attorney, to buy a condo in Watergate, to pay for my college career with my websites, and to live happily ever after.

    To be settled down, and to have a comfortable lifestyle.
    Don't you just love free internet games ?

    To have kids and a castle in the mountains.

    Honestly, alot of what I do now is for many years in the future. Sites like this site, or my template site, they're not meant to make me money now, they're meant to make me money in 5 years.

    Most likely around Knoxville, but I wouldn't be adverse to the pacific northwest.

    I must say a castle in the mountains does sound nice...

    Apart from my AWS sites, most of the sites I make are their to make me money in the future, as I'm still at school I don't need instant money, so long term investment is best.

    To own homes in 4 countries, be financially independent, to have a degree in history and/or politics (I still have to find time to start studying, of course:P), but if all that fails, just being happy will be good enough for me.

    I thought this was for by 2010, not 2014...

    Um, well if it is 2014 then:

    Do have a degree in politics (or political ideologies) and business.
    To own a real estate empire.
    To own a publishing empire (offline and online).
    (Thanks to Chris for enspiring me) To be the man in the high castle, preferably in a small country such as litchenstein or a carribean island.

    And maybe:

    To be married.
    To own a large share in the freedom ship company.
    To own around 1000 sq kilometers of beautiful land, maybe in Canada.

    I didn't think so after reading Political Ideologies by Andrew Heywood. Not everyone finds the same things boring.

    The Prince by Machiavelli (You probably sleep with this book )
    Manufacturing Consent by Chomsky
    Anything by John Locke (Big in Poly Sci)
    Anything by Thomas Hobbes (Big in Poly Sci, Leviathan)
    Communist Manifesto by Marx.
    The Republic by Plato
