[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haha! I was a C/D student and spent more time developing my social skills. Further worked on my social skills at Radford. I'm now married, with 2 kids, I had a successful sales career, decided I hate travel and now am in sales management. I pull in more money that surgeons.

Do I want my kids to get bad grades? No! However, success (at least in a career) is highly dependent on your ability to network, your power of persuasion, your confidence, and your likeability. All soft skills.[/quote]

I was an B- student in HS and college.  I spent most my time practicing my golf game.  After college graduation from a D3 school, I happened to play golf at the Army/Navy CC in Alexandria to kill time while looking for a job, I met this guy who was impressed with my golf game and wanted me to hang out with him playing golf at his Riverbend CC.  Long story short, I am now married to his daughter and working for him in managing high tech and pharmaceutical start ups.  I have more $$$ than what I want to do with it.[/quote]

Glad it worked out but I wouldn't want my kid working for his FIL. Messes up the family/power/$ dynamic for most. If one is a B/C student -- have them figure out something on their own that is just THEIRS.[/quote]
