Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bogart" data-source="post: 811053" data-attributes="member: 7725">Bump to this thread.I’m 25 now and going through a similar thing.For me finances are solid from family money and my own successful business ventures (ran an insanely successful high end tutoring business for a few years in university, sold out and have since been working high end corporate and not for profit law intern gigs) I’ve travelled a bunch already but haven’t really done so for more than 2-4 months at a time since I was 18 (although I did do a semester abroad). Right now I’ve recently graduated with two degrees from a good school and I’m getting qualified as a solicitor in Sydney. After this I can either:1. Take up a graduate law job offer at a top tier corporate law firm. The main reason I’d do this is because while I have a really solid CV right now I don’t have any long term graduate experience and I assume this could really hold me back later in life. The work would be mind numbing and hours long but at least I’d have a solid base to fall back on/leverage on top of the high quality hodgepodge of policy/law/research/entrepreneurship I’ve got now.2. Say fuck it, take my chances at getting accepted into a top 40 international masters program in my chosen field (policy/ethics) and go do random shit for the next year or so. I was thinking of partying over summer in scandanavia, the Baltic’s or the Greek isles, then applying to do some human rights fieldwork in Ukraine and or do a russian language course in Minsk or Moscow/St Pete. I could do this after one more year of work but I’m going stir crazy and it feels like there’s never a right timeAnyone want to weigh in?</blockquote>
