What blows me away about the guy is the belief in magic.
His jokes are hitting the right spots too much that it could be random jokes he just stumbled over. He has a social critic side, and a comic side of him. I wonder how he connects the two so well. It feels like all his jokes start as an accusation against a person he's seen, or a stereotype he hates. Yet he presents them as jokes at the expense of his own portrayed personality. It's so brilliant, it's genius.
Or maybe he's just a lucky sob.

My belief in the magic of intuition. The unexplainable phenomenon where one person just sees things in a way different to the great majority, which empowers them in ways unthinkable to the great majority. In this case, however he manages to turn a personal annoyance into something universally hilarious.
It's also a missunderstanding that people can actually 'pick their future'. You can make plans, no doubt, but sometimes things just don't work out that way. Also, it's no as easy to say:
First of all, what is worthless? Besides that, I remember when I was in school they used to say you shouldn't become a teacher for example because there are way too many. 10 Years later they're lookin hard for teachers. So what seems "worthless" at a time, doesn't mean it's going to be 10 or 20 years later..... well, it's not that easy to foresee the future.

Agree. We had the IT boom in the 90s where everyone was going to work with computers, that's "where the money is". Now we have people doing fairly menial computer based tasks such as data input, and PC building for minimum wage.
Then in the early 2000s there was a report about how plumbers were scarce, and earning 70k a year, now we have a shit load of plumbers. I think the best way is to probably go against the grain, or go crazy and pursue a career you enjoy, rather than base it on financial aspects.

Exactly. I do believe you should orientated your carreer after your talents rather than after what is told to be 'good'. And even if you'd study philosophy, if you are really good at it you might become a professor on a university and I'd consider that a good job. So go after what you enjoy and what you're good at, that would be my advice. And as mentioned before, since the future is a tricky thing, you might still up in a shitty job.
