By my definition you didn't have the first one.

Anyway, one instance:

-Graduated law school, but didn't go through the bar exam.

-Spent seven years working part time and being part of a theatre group.

-Left that in his 30s in favour of entering the workforce for real, moved abroad and had a full time job for 4 years.

-Left that job, moved back to his home country and has been coasting doing part time jobs ever since.

Plenty of people with similar stories - some of them were shaped by the 2008 economic crisis, which made several European countries enter a period of stagnation that continues to this day.
