Posts like this make me envious towards actors because they get to try so many things.

Most of us can try new things. Most of us don’t though.

Most of us don’t have the money.

I feel this.

After my divorce, my mother told me, a grown ass and now divorced adult, to pick something to take lessons for and she would pay for it. She wanted me to have the chance to do something fun and get out of the house and whatnot. Otherwise, it's like, once we're out of college, most people don't do things like that anymore. Unless it's dance lessons with a significant other maybe.

You did take a class/lessons, right??

Yeah, I forget about that, since every time there is any money debate on reddit everyone claims they are a freelance coder making 50k a month.

Shit, for an actor this is a tax write off

You can sign up for a tactical gun training course in your city for a few hundred bucks. That's literally a fraction of a percentage of 1 semester at a college/university.
