Subject: Where do you see yourself in 5, 10, 15, 20 years?

Written By: ElDuderino on 04/05/05 at 6:39 pm

Where is it that you ideally see yourself?

Me:

April 2010 - Just out of college, and living with Mary(not married yet though). Working as a salesman, and pooling my financial resources.

April 2015 - Married to Mary. Still working as a Salesman, but working on my first novel(Mary and myself both aspire to be novelists).

April 2020 - One or two kids. My first novel is published by this time, and I live in a beautiful custom-designed home.

April 2025 - Really making it as a novelist, my finances are very good. I've quit working and write full-time, and in my spare time get involved in charities.
