    Got to second this for myself.

    I'm an intelligent guy (not to blow my own trumpet), and I have a decent job....I just don't work hard and I could make so much more out of my career but that includes effort XD

    As long as you're happy bro , But myself I need money to be happy (Don't give me the "Money won't buy happiness bullshit) If I can't pull myself together and start working hard I'm fucked, I need to get into a nice university...

    True that, I'm a very materialistic person. The shit I want is unnecessary and expensive, but if earn the means, why not?

    As for Uni, it's good to be able to get into the nicest school you can, the only importance of a school's reputation is when you want to do grad studies after, for research.

    But as long as the program you're trying for is accredited and the Uni is a legit not-for-profit U, it won't matter in the workplace. Even admission to pre-professional programs like Law or Med doesn't mandate a prestigious school (they'd rather a 3.8 from some U, not a 2.3 from Yale). Especially once you've landed your first real job and build your work experience.

    I understand, and you're right. Good stuff costs money haha. Regardless I would still rather get into a nice Uni that people respect.
    Working well at Uni is another problem entirely

    I think my worst quality is that I over-analyze every possible thing.

    There should definitely be a happy medium though. Also remember that a prestigious college (i.e. Yale) will cost exponentially more than a very good college that might be at the exact same caliber. College really is what you make of it and what major you pick. The whole "do whatever you like and money will come to you" thing sounds great but very few people actually succeed financially with that. (Unless whatever you like is engineering, comp sci or business)

    I think I would make myself prettier... Not that I'm ugly, but I don't like my appearance.

    Hmm, I'd make myself a few inches taller, well, more like 5 inches taller. I'm EXTREMELY short...I've been my height since 7th grade (super long time ago).
