Maybe. I'm currently a student living with my parents and I have a pretty comfy life. Realistically my free will is limited because I can't really just quit school, move to another country or join a circus. Well theoretically I can, in the sense that I can also jump under a train tommorow, it's just not realistic. I'm sort of locked in to the student lifestyle and I'm really enjoying it. I honestly don't think I would mind if this was my life and I couldn't really change it. School is easy, I have tons of free time to be on my pc, go out drinking and do pretty much whatever I want (only limited by the size of my monthly allowance and some money from my summer job). This is my final year of school which means I will exercise my true free will from now on. I'm responsible for my actions, I have the freedom to make all of my choices. I don't want to say it terrifies me, but that is the first word that popped into my head so... I still have no answer to the question though.
Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does. - Jean Paul Sartre
