would you become a fashion designer if it was your career dream?
.. & then u realized ... u r tied down to money problem. the starting average salaray a fashion designer made is $30,000. and living in california, 30,000 a year is not gonna get u anywhere. lets take it into calculation $30,000 - 6,000 (taxes) = $24,000 a year tat means... $2,000 / month cost of rent: $1,300 wats left: $700? is tat enough for food and all other bills??? if u see this? would tis stop u from achieving ur career dream? would u change ur mind and head to become a pharmacist instead? cuz pharmacist made almost $100,00 a year. after i saw the calculation, i almost change my mind instantly and tat just made me felt so down because i thought i knew where im heading to in life already my aunt said living in CA, you should look for a job tat makes more money, because she regretted following her dream, then end up having to stress about money everyday.

- I've always heard if you follow your heart, the money will follow. Typically, $2000 a month should be plenty to cover your expenses. If you're finding yourself short, you can always take in a roommate or move someplace more affordable. And you listed the average STARTING salary. You didn't take into consideration that in most corporations, you can expect an annual raise, as well as cost-of-living increases along the way. Don't let your aunt's fear and negative feelings hold you back, you'll regret and always think "what if"!
