Right now I'm trying to stay beered-up enough to make it through another month without walking out in the middle of a shift. So...suggestions are welcome. Am I a fool for staying aboard a sinking ship, or is the ship just in some rough water right now? And precisely when is it acceptable to stab a co-worker?
Salary sucks ass, period! It sounds great until you realize how much you're potentially losing. Though you make a fair amount more than me still, I fear I'm one step away from being put on salary as much as I have to fight for raises lately. It's too bad you guys are so dependant on constant income. You know how well car sales can pay, but you also know how hit and miss it is. Artwork is undoubtedly more hit and miss. You should post some pics of some of your t-shirts, etc
Those first two degrees did not cost me a dime as I looked for money, grants, scholarships etc. My current financial aid package at Chico State is better than some people make in a year working a crap retail job fulltime. My student loans are a minuscule part of my aid package.
An old mr2, the wife drives an old camry. I don't see it as living beyond their means so much as trying to invest in a future! Once the wife is out of college, she'll undoubtedly be able to get a career that pays fairly well and all the struggles will be worth it. Lots of people who've skipped the opportunity to further their education end up barely getting by through life, myself included, so her taking advantage of the opportunity now (she's several years younger than he) is the right long term plan.Myself, in my situation, if I were making $2800 a month.......well, let's just say things would be really good for me!
Find a something your good at or can pretend you are good at and work for yourself. <snip> Sure it is very risky but I made the jump after saving up some money and am oh so glad I did. Thats just my 2 cents and keep in mind im only 20 years old
this is for pat, if you are already making fat $ and dotn wnat to work the regular 9-5 grind, then what are you going to school for? i mean i know personal excellence is awesome and props to that, but isnt the point of school so you can make more $ in a job?
I suggest Wichita.
Aside from a few ideas we kicked around on the phone, look at your avatar -- ever considered LE?
