Lifetime student

People who refuse grow up. Often in school 20 plus years after high school. while not working, and living off a relative or family members generosity. Usually they have extremely lofty goals such as doctor, engineers, or anything very prestigious sounding. This is a result of wanting to be in a fantasy world, without dealing of the actual pressures of the real world. Often these people can be found at community colleges, but not exclusively. Really a sad thing to be honest. Often these people claim to be geniuses, who sometimes were cheated out of there opportunities along the way. When offered a chance to rectify this such as a prestigious internship, they are often met with many reasons, or personal problems, they cannot accept, but will accept next semester or next year, if possible. Also known to spend a lot of time browsing the internet in private.

Nicolas was a lifetime student. He got his BA and had an additional 120 post baccalaureate credits. His stated goal was to be a chiropractor but at 55 years old, and deep in student loan debt, this was not a true goal. Rather something of a fantasy, while also telling family members and such that he was going to be a “Doctor” while spending most of his time watching tv and fapping
