I know this isn't /adv/, but I wanna hear your guys' opinions. I'll take the 3 day ban for it.

I'm a 21-year-old college senior in Chicago studying Finance & Stats. I do very well in school and do all of the right stuff to be "successful" in the future. I thought I wanted to make oodles of money. That was my goal. I wanted to go into investment banking.

Lately, I find myself questioning what I want out of life. I'm working an internship and I could not sit in a cubicle every day. This shit's killing me. I do 90 minutes of work a day and spend the rest of my time dicking around on message boards. It feels like death.

I'm coming to realize that I don't want a 9-5. I don't really want a huge house or tons of stuff. I like experiencing things more than owning them. I don't want to get married and have kids. I just want to enjoy life. I want to travel the world, experience lots of things, and have no obligations. The feeling of being tied down or of answering to someone feels terrible to me. It makes me very anxious.

I have no idea what I want to do when I graduate next year. I don't want to go work a full time job making $70K a year, living in an apartment, hating every weekday, and getting drunk to forget every weekend.

Ideally, I'd travel the world, live in rented rooms and hotels, and do whatever I want. Might travel through South America for a few years. Live in a place, meet some people, leave when I get bored to a new place.

In order for this to be sustainable, I'd need a reliable source of income. I currently trade stocks for money and make decent returns, but it isn't consistent. I'm working on getting better always.

I currently have $25K. That's enough to travel for a while through South America and Asia. Europe is pretty expensive. I don't want to do Africa until I'm more experienced. I'll try to get to a place where I can sustain myself just trading, but I'm not there yet. Only other thing I can think of is the Navy.

What do I do with my life...
