- I'll have released over 20 novels online, free, epub.
- I'll have written and released at least 2 successful volumetric game engines.
- I'll have at least 1 child, and hopefully a wife that doesn't conform to the generic housewife norms.
- I'll be an accomplished digital painter.

But these cannot be accurate, because technology will advance so far. o-o

I'll be happy, watching over my grandchildren in a nice cozy little home after traveling around the world and having fun with my husband :)

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
Hopefully alive. If I can manage that then my ideal scenario would probably
be a nice home cut off from society, with a dog to keep me company.
..And still playing games. :mrgreen:

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
Happily married with no kids (though that could change. I have no idea how I'll feel about kids in the future).

An enjoyable job.

Enough money to live comfortably and get pretty much whatever I want. Nothing really expensive, like yachts or other rich people stuff. Mainly video games, etc.

Hopefully in good shape, or at least good health.

I see my hands horribly crippled and twisted with really bad CTS because of that game I played a long time ago as a kid...I can't remember it's name- Oh wait, it was FFR!! That game was a piece of shit, I don't even know why I played it in the first place...

This is a good thread btw.

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
Most likely: either dead or serving time in prison.
If it should happen that neither of those scenarios come to be, then I'll probably be living somewhere outside of the United States because I truly believe the US is going to be much, much shittier by the time I turn 40, who knows what it will be like when I'm 60? Most likely I'll be living in Scandinavia or Southeast Asia, but that's going by my predictions of those regions by today's standards. Who knows what those places will be like when I'm older?
If I'm not dead or imprisoned, I see myself as neither rich nor poor. Probably closer to the poor side, but certainly wealthy enough to live comfortably.

samurai7694 02-3-2013 05:11 AM

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
Assuming I'm married and had kids, and they had kids, I'd just use up the money I have saved on my kids and grandkids and spoil them with random vacation trips and tell them lots of hilarious stories from my life. I'd settle in a quiet neighborhood. No rich mansion or fancy car. I'd probably own a Rottweiler because I've been dying to own one for a while.

oh, and I'd teach my kids about music, have them become musicians if they're interested, and introduce them to rhythm games at an early age, hehehe.

DarknessXoXLight 02-3-2013 05:16 AM

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
- Married and living together either here or in Canada, doesn't matter to me.
- Working as either a successful Cardiologist or as head of my own ER as a Physician.
- Having two lovely boys who are polite and don't chew gum.
- Publishing books on the side under a pen name. :3

omg i forgot the most important thing! I will own the Ball Game and it will be in our basement and it will be used to settle all arguments. omfg. (inlov)

EzExZeRo7497 02-3-2013 05:41 AM

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
- Married and living together in a European country (preferably Norway or Germany, a quiet neighbourhood) or in Singapore.
- Working as a music producer/composer or a psychiatrist.
- Having a child who's rather quiet and introverted and loves reading/writing.
- I'd probably teach my child about music as well.

Realistically speaking, I'd be dead before 60 though.

Re: Where do you see yourself at age 60, in your ideal scenario?
 
Umm, ideally alive and in better health than I am right now with enough money to retire on or a job that I like enough to not want to retire.

"I'll have at least 1 child, and hopefully a wife that doesn't conform to the generic housewife norms."
Like what??? Not loving your kids, never cleans, hates reading and television? I think by definition being a housewife, especially with young kids, you have as much stereotype as anyone with any job but even moreso because looking after kids full-time is more time than an 8 hour a day job. Hobbies that can't be done in short sprints are hard to manage. Unless you're well-off and you have a housekeeper/nanny.

Right? I want to be living in a comfortable home, own my corvette (I WILL have one some day) and hopefully loving my career of being a Computer Science Professor.

Live in a secluded area with plenty of walking area, like BC, or someplace with mountains/tons of places to explore, with a lady (Lindsey), with a house that we've both designed and mostly built ourselves, gardening our own food maybe.

Realistically speaking, I work the rest of my life, raise a family, and die.

Ideally, I feel secure enough to quit my job and launch my own company doing what I've always wanted to do: Make video games. And again, ideally, they'd be enjoyed by many and I could feel content knowing that I'd finally created what I dreamt amount for so many days as a little kid. Just a dream, though -- and not likely to happen. I need a team (of high talent and similar vision) and I don't know how to gather people / arrange that kind of team, so the whole thing will likely remain a dream.

Otherwise my main hope is that I get through life happily/healthily.

DotKritic 02-4-2013 01:25 AM

Retired. Hopefully be married and have a kid or two by the time I turn 30 (got 5 1/2 years left) and cheer him/her on during a soccer match.

60's not THAT old, I really don't understand why so many people are expecting to be dead (even with health conditions). Medicine/health care will continue to advance, and life expectancy will go up. 'Realistically', most of you guys probably won't be dead lol

As for my ideal scenario, I'll hopefully have my PhD hanging from my wall, a beautiful, loving wife, and a successful child. I'm not quite sure where I'd like to live yet though... I'm happy in Florida, but we'll see how grad school influences me. I'd like to retire making at least six-figures and have enough saved to enjoy my retirement. Assuming 60 is when I retire, and I hadn't done so by then, I'd probably travel the world a bit. Europe, Australia, Japan... That'd be nice.

All of this is pretty realistic for me too (thankfully). Anything more than this would be gravy.
