How I'd characterize those I advised

Washingtonians: ambitious AND idealistic: rare combo in such high numbers: Silicon Valley, maybe univerity towns...

there's some in most Big cities, but

overeducated

risk adverse

I'm gainfully underempoyed

[maybe this is just a glossary entry

what I posted on LinkedIn. Peter F. Agreed

Let me brainstorm various aspects and manifestations of being "Gainfully Misemployed":

• A successful corporate executive who appears successful on paper but dreams of being an artist
• A high-paid consultant who yearns to teach elementary school
• A lawyer at a prestigious firm who wants to open a bakery
• A tech professional with a corner office who wishes they were writing novels
• A financial analyst who dreams of becoming a wildlife photographer
• A marketing director who feels called to social work
