Yep!  Neither one of my kids was interested in a career that was going to end up lucrative nor were they interested in studying something they don't like.  One is hoping to end up a fed like both parents (a GS 13 and 14 - the horror!) and the other hopes to be a working musician and has a decent plan.  I feel like they will end up happy and fulfilled but there may be bumps along the way and it might take a little while.   At least they don't have student loans.[/quote]

This! I have a college senior and sophomore. Neither care about being rich and don’t want high pressure careers. I just want them to be happy with what they choose. I’m glad they won’t start their careers with student loans because they were practical and chose UMD. I tell them all the time they don’t need our approval. I’m sure there will be some bumps but they will find a way to support themselves. They already have demonstrated a great work ethic throughout school and their internships. [/quote]
