    I am a Terrible Investment

    I've just realized that I represent a terrible option for anyone seeking to invest time or money into a person.  I had a full scholarship for my undergrad degree and I'm not working in anything remotely close to that field anymore.  If they were hoping I'd become a famous alum and direct people into their program, whoops!  Terrible waste of scholarship money there.

    I also realize that I've been given a "second chance" since recovering from a potentially grave illness a few years ago.  For the sake of my investment analogy, lets put it in banker language and call that second chance "borrowed time".  What have I done since then?  I have to admit that many measures of my output or productivity or value as a person have taken a real nosedive since then.  After such a loan, wouldn't you expect me to get cracking on paying it back with interest?  To get to work cramming more experiences and accomplishments into that borrowed time than would normally fit there?

    I don't like this analysis, but I think it's accurate.  I represent a terrible investment.

    Maybe new management could turn this around.
