What Do You Hope...

Xioneer

*insert random cleverness* XD
...To get out of Life? I mean, What do you really think you want?

And, 'being realistic', What do you think you will end up with?

Perhaps I should start off, but I'm too shy to come "In First"...

UPDATE: Well, about 2 whole pages of Replies now, so I'll Add mine...

What do I think I want?
Money: Only as much as I need to have everything I need and most of what I want. Any more seems...redundant?
Home: First, I'd just like to get out from under the same roof as my mother. And I have no issues with Renting, but I'd like to own someday, if $ isn't a serious issue. Then I'll Upgrade it as is possible. I want to own a work of art you can live in...
Family: Want? I guess so. Need? Maybe. Will have? I doubt it. Kids? I'd adopt if it came to that, by some miracle...
Pets: Never had anything bigger than a cat. I want a dog and a horse, if I ever own enough property to keep them.
Travel: Only for Business. For Pleasure is appealing, but I imagine once you start, it's hard to stop? I'm a homebody anyway...
"Success"?: I define success as getting where you want to be. Where do I want to be?
1) Living somewhere in the Greater Northern Midwest - always had a soft spot for the name "Montana".
2) I'd like to be a credited, mildly successful* Author/Creator/Producer in Cartoons/Comics/GNs - or Anime/Manga - and/or Gaming.
3) Anonymous. Because to me, anonymity is bliss...
*enough so I get back out of a Project at least what $ I put into it. Unless it brings me Commissioned work...

What do I think I'll end up with? A heart attack by 45 or so, in my native State, in this old firetrap I'm currently living in. And two cats. I'll definitely be Published by then, though, so it won't have been quite a total waste. And my cats will think the world of me and miss me, so yeah, not a total waste...

I want to live at least a comfortable lifestyle as a suiter (at least at home dancing or gaming), with a girl who either is a furry or doesn't despise them.

I want to restore my family's wealth, prestiege, and name recognition to the levels before the commies took it away.

Realistically, I'll probably just end up with an obscure castle somewhere, terrorizing the villagers (Bleh!)

to be able to experiment with art and be able to make a living doing so, is it realisitic? , I dunno I have to somehow get over my self worth issues so I can crack down on it

Honestly? I want to get a secure job (perhaps in accountancy) and make a lot of money. I like working hard, so I'd rather have that in the future than an easy fun job.

Dude, just crack down on it anyway.

Your self-worth issues will sort themselves out as you start impressing yourself and others with what y'all see you're capable of doing.

I do hope, with all my soul, that you could not like everything that everyone likes without being called a weirdo, you HAVE to be like everyone else or you will not be accepted into society and will probably left alone, you have to like soccer or you will be left out of every conversation. And that's what I hope, but not only for me, for the homosexual people, other religions,etc.
(this happnes in my country, not america.)

EDIT: I expanded of this talk
Well, I haven't been called weird (yet) because I am a closet furry, but I have seen a lot of people been called that when being emo or homosexual (One got killed a year ago by neo-nazis) and myself when I was a brony, my family and friends told me I was a weirdo, (the main reason I am a closet fur), my country tries so hard to be like America but fails so bad.n

You can always live the life of a commisionable furry porn artist. Assuming you're able to harness your inner cult leader of course.

Yeah, we kinda got that when you said "soccer" XD
Weirdos do make the world move forward.

Live a fairly long happy life with my mate and not looking back.

Writer extraordinaire
Continue doing my job and earning enough money to make a living on my own/with someone I'll love.
Be able to draw more than circles and continue writing stuff people enjoy, to the point they ask for more.
And basically continue to have internet 'til the end of my life (or something similar that can let me communicate with people/friends that live faraway) ♪

I hope to find someone to share my life with and be able to make a decent living woodworking.
Realistically will probably end up in a pit.

Move to Japan. My father-in-law is a wood turner, and makes a pretty good living there. With their frequent earthquakes, they even have lots of pits.

Soon I will master fursuit creation and become a maker of them~
I'll also open up my petsite in a few years and it'll be awesome~
I will get a nice house somewhere and fill it to the brim with fish tank~
I will have a pack of the coolest dogs around and I'll put them on Youtube to show off their training~
I will go to every anime and furry convention I can~

In the end though, I want to find that special person in my life and live with him until the end. We'll do all kinds of stuff together and explore the wonders of life. I'll protect him and he'll protect me and together we will be happy and content. And if so be it, we might have a family (however I can go either way on this one).

And on holidays I'll host parties and have the house all decorated up~ It'll be cold outside, but inside, it'll be warm and smell of pine trees and orange peels because I put them on plates inside the heating vent. Other times I might desire the smell of peppermint or cookies. It just will depend on the holiday being celebrated. Sure, the relatives may bicker like they usually do, but I'd do my best to keep everyone happy as I briefly share my glorious life with them.

I want to travel and see all types of people and places. I've been stuck in this state for so long, and the people don't really seem relate-able. I'm afraid of dying before I get to know anything in this world. :p

I want to make my comic! I want to use it as a means of understanding myself, getting people to understand me, and getting the readers to understand themselves! I think about it every day, and it's the one goal that I want to accomplish more than anything. But right now, I have to focus on making myself a harder worker, so I can live a comfortable enough life to sustain that pursuit.

I put away 1/4 of my paycheck into savings. It hurts, and I can't enjoy the game consoles and restaurant outings my friends go to, but once a year that ads up to be enough to visit almost any country for a week or two.

To be good at what I do in my career path and make a difference in people's lives, even if it's small.

I also want to travel a lot and go to luxurious places and drink fancy wine and shit.
