So my brother is doing great in his career...

Graduated on time, got a good job and is now buying a house. He goes on vacations every few months or so etc.

And I'm over here 25 still living with my parents, no degree, part time job etc.

Guess that means I'm stupid and should probably just not try anymore, just give up.

Stop comparing yourself to your brother. Get out there and go to a trade school and get yourself a good job.

Stop whining

Your brother probably enjoys what he does and enjoyed his time responsibly in school. I’m in a very similar situation after studying in school hard then burning out and dropping out of college. I’m 30 now, and unsure what to do. Do I continue on the career route I set out for myself at the beginning of this year, or do I aim to save my little income to go back to school and get an AA or do I seek an apprenticeship in a trade. I like what I do but I don’t think there’s much promise where I live long term. Seeking another career would allow me to get the hell away from where I am and provide financial relief to pay off some debts.

@Mondayschild I'm not whining, just saying.
