That's why I'm putting mine through school, the economic advantage will last him a lifetime. At the rate quoted he's already $40,000 to the good over and above his tuition. I figure with a graduate degree too, my kid can write his own ticket and NEVER have to work for tips and commissions. //// Got the pic, yuck! So not fair. Would you like some pretty fall leaves to hang in your windows? Snow banished, nature's best light show instead. Let me know, okay? ~LA

It's not the income alone (although money is nice, it's not everything), it's having a job that you enjoy doing. My youngest is now enrolled in an associate's degree program in automotive collision repairs at a technical college -- NOT a public community college, this degree will cost me at least $37,000 by the time he graduates in spring of '08 -- BUT it will be worth it if he can earn a decent living and enjoy what he is doing.

When it came time to go to college, as I remember it there really wasn't the money to go and the family planned to just marry me off which is what happened. Now I wished I had gone to school instead.
