What have learned about myself while researching about careers, houses, and cars?

If I had to pick, I would decide on a job I enjoy, but doesn't pay well because money cannot directly buy happiness.

The house I chose is an apartment in Chicago which is listed for $300,000, and has a monthly payment of $1,592. I chose this apartment because it is in Chicago, which is a city I am relatively familiar with and will probably have a low commute, and it has everything I need when I'm at home, or I need to work from home.

Why do I want to be a software engineer?

Why do I want to be a software engineer?

# data[].attributes.body
I have wanted to become a software engineer for a while because I have always enjoyed creating things, and recently, I have also recently begun to enjoy coding as well, which is a valuable skill for software engineers. More reasons I want to be a software engineer are that I am good at, and enjoy, using math to solve problems, making plans, and understanding technical concept.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose the 2018 Chevrolet Volt because it seemed relatively cheap, until I actually looked at how it would fit into my budget, and it has a very good fuel economy, which I find important because it means I can spend less money on gas.

What does it take to become a software engineer?

# data[].attributes.body
In order to become a software engineer, I would need to spend four years at college in order to get a degree in software engineering. I would also need to gain a lot of experience in coding using a variety of programming languages.

# data[].attributes.body
If I became a software engineer, I would work regular work hours in an office, where I would design software for various purposes, work closely with my clients, or possibly even design a video game, depending on where I work. When I first got out of college, I would earn a starting salary of around $58,000, but as I became more experienced, I could earn a salary of up to around $163,000.

The things that this house has which are important to me are a bathroom, so that I can maintain good hygiene, a kitchen, so that I can cook my own food if I need to, and a bedroom, so that I have somewhere to sleep, and somewhere to work if I have to work from home.

What are some areas I will need to work on if I want to reach my goals? Is there anything I can start doing in high school?

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that I need to make sure I know my budget before I decide what I want to buy and making sure I know how to code in multiple languages instead of just one. I can start working on these goals in high school by selecting personal finance and computer programming as some of my electives.
