Possibly go to United States Naval Academy and attain the rank of ensign on a surface ship. I could either make that a career or i could serve a bit and then get a master's degree in political science. Who knows, maybe ill run for president. oOo: Anyway, I definetly want to have a wife, and kids. And at around 50 or so after saving up money throughout my whole life I would like to start a private boarding school type of thing. Anyway, give me a call in 30 years and well see how much of that i have actually accomplished. oOo:

[quote="Sgt>Stackem":9a776]if this old fart could offer some advise....invest in an IRA ASAP. the sooner you start the better off you will be. I started way too late dont make the mistake I did. Save for your future![/quote:9a776]
Great advice. Also, for those of you in the "real world" contribute to your company's 401K, especially if they match. Don't wait. And if you have kids get them a 529 plan started as soon as they have a ss#. Invest what you can afford, but do it consistently. There's nothing worse than seeing people working well into their retirement years because they didn't plan for their futures.

I start University in February. I'm doing a Communications degree at my Dad's university (where Im temping, atm), this degree at this University is probably the best in the country.
For those that don't know - Communications = Film, Journalism, TV, Radio, New Media (3D art, computers, game design etc)....
I'll probably concentrate on my writing and film...

Ya'know, I wouldn't doubt it. I have abit more under my belt than just a degree, so I'm lucky there.
And yes, everything is about who you know! biggrin: |
