and I also worked my way through college and agree, the actual education might not have done a thing for me however, I can promise you it did open doors. Have any of y'all read "The Millioaire Next Door." I think that's the name of the book. It descibes the typical millionaire as, not one with the silver spoon in his mouth but, one who drives a 6 year old car, lives in a 1800 squar foot ranch and has constantly made sacrifices throughout his/her life to be financially independent. This book describes my father to a "T." My father is 87, lived through the depression and probably saved 99 cents of every $ he ever made. We never ate at a fast food restaurant, or any restaurant for that matter, never went to movies, our vacations were always trips back to Texas to see our relatives, not beach vacations, etc. My point in all this, is my father never made alot of money but, he certainly saved alot. He is now thoroughly enjoying retirement. This "cheapskate" had a Plasma TV before me, travels the world, plays golf twice a week and doesn't have a financial worry in the world. It's called "personal responsibility." Try it, you'll like it.
