[quote=Anonymous]I finished law school with six figures in loan debt that I paid off early. What was my secret? My lower middle class parents never encouraged me to “follow my dreams”, and they were frank about how much better our lives would be if we did not have to constantly worry about money. When I had the opportunity to trade my life for a massive salary, I took it. Did my time, paid off my debt, got a few bucks in savings, and took a moderately boring but reasonably satisfying job that paid well for the lifestyle. Oh? And never stopped working my butt off. Journalism is dying. Get yourself to B school or use that creative writing prowess to sell crap. Otherwise, accept you’ll be regular customers at the bank of mom and dad for life. [/quote]
