I'm starting to become disillusioned by "science". I think I might be perfectly okay just because a high school teacher or something that gives me ample free time for personal pursuits. I've come to accept I likely will never produce anything significant. My only real assets are my creativity, ability to maximize efficiency/planning, and running a business. On top of knowing I will not be able to make any novel contribution to my field, I am not afforded the same opportunities as someone from a wealthy background, a female, and/or minority further diminishing my potential outcome. At least in business the only thing that matters is results/revenue. I don't know, maybe I'm naive and retarded.
