    There is no need for you to justify yourself. None.

    My girlfriend makes twice what I do with no college degree. I am fine with that. Sometimes people find themselves in places at opportune times.

    I drive a POS s-10, however I am 20-30k/yr below what you guys feel is average for the board or decent money.

    As for living expenses. I live in a 3br/2bath house and rent is $750. Not bad at all. However I cant afford it on my own. There are two other people who live with me and split the bills. If it wasn't for that I couldn't survive. I have $100-200 left over a month for food and other expenses. If I had to live on my own, I would be at or just beyond redline with my finances.

    I wish I had gone to a better/more reputable school. I wish I had stayed at wal mart, then my credit wouldntbe screwed and I would be able to get a security clearance, or a job at a financial institution. I have played the cards I have been dealt as good as I can. I have gone job hunting the first 6-7 months of the last 3 years. I have yet to figure out what I am doing wrong. The entire reason I am at this stage of the interview process is that I had a good friend on the inside get me in front of his supervisor. This is the first face to face onterview outside of retail and BS jobs I have had in a VERY long time.

    I don't think anyone is bashing on you for how much you make. I got the job I do now through a temp agency. It sucks while you're working for them, but once you get hired on it's usually a pretty decent bump in pay, if this doesn't pan out for you. The only thing I'd look out for in a temp agency are cyclical jobs (large up and down swings throughout the year.)

    I've considered going to college. But as far as I'm aware, there are only two colleges that offer degree plans even remotely related to what I do (Purdue and SMU). And even then, that degree is worthless to me, because it's more in hospitality management.


    I think I am going to pull the trigger on Culinary school though.

My said this chick had been going on and on about how she is so money, lmao.
