[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a CS/math major and I make more per hour worked than my surgeon brother in law who didn’t start making money until nearly 40 (phd-md).  The majority of his family’s major decisions revolve around his career, it constantly takes priority in his family’s life and has nearly led to divorce more than once.  Granted, their life has gotten better since he finished his training, research and fellowship, but it was a grueling period of time while trying to also start a family. They have told us after going through the process to become an elite surgeon/researcher, they would never have either of their kids go into medicine unless they were the best of the brightest and could get into something cushy like dermatology (highly competitive).

I love my stress free job, complete flexibility, can work from anywhere, 20 hours per week. [b]If you like and are good at math, are also good with people and American , you will do extremely well.[/b]  Every industry is in desperate need of tech workers not just Big Tech.

This is our DS, currently a college junior. What do you recommend for this type of CS major for first jobs? He’s not sure he could get a security clearance or would want a job with one since he’s a regular MJ smoker. He would thrive under what you describe as your current working conditions.[/quote]
