Prolly about a semester before I graduated from college. I was looking online for jobs relating to my degree... Realized the market sucked and so did the pay starting out. Saw that there was a shite ton of nursing jobs, so i finished my degree and went back to school for nursing right after... Been a nurse for 3 years now. Made 6 figs last year too.

Getting the hell out of Honduras was goal #1 since I was in junior high.
I knew one of the best ways to stay in 'merica would be to get an advanced engineering degree.

How can you tell if sales is right for you?
Do you like to kiss arse? Do you like to be the one that takes it up the arse? Do you like to put on a smile when you would like to punch mother frickers in the nose? If so, sales could be for you.

When I was born my father setup a trust in my name. When I turned 18 I really knew what I was destined to do with my life.

graduated with History Arts and Sciences degree from LSU.
Starved my arse off. Went to law school. Finished second from the bottom. Got a part time government job, hit some decent cases on the side, invest in real estate, and random things when I see an opportunity. Can't be a regular lawyer, cuz I can't sit still, why I almost flunked out 4 times, but that is cool in real estate where you drive around a lot looking at deals and jibber jabber on the phone a lot. You can research any business online and find real people who write articles, and network, and read business books, and make some business friends and sorta free lance your way into something that fits your personality. I can spend 8 hours on the road in one day hustling a deal, but if I have to read something for longer than 10 minutes I start balancing a pencil on my nose, and yawning, but you can find a way to be successful with your strengths and paper over your weaknesses. Love my life.

I wanted to do a full career in the military then become a state trooper, but the military and I had to part ways after only 6 years. Something with being a public servant interests/ed me.
Unfortunately I'm working in a plant as an operator now b/c:
Still want to become a trooper though.

Well I knew how much lawyers are beloved in modern America, so I did that. It's been all ticker tape parades and dodging panties since.

One of my college professors told me to marry well, so I did.

i walked backwards into my career. Started out programming but realized I hated it, and slowly inched over to sales. I still hate it, but I get paid better.
