So the great thing about forums is that we have people on here from all walks of life. So this thread is for people that have aquired wealth throughout their lifetime and have advice on the best way to make the most money. Share your life experiences and give us young people some constructive ideas on how to earn, keep and spend money.

From what i learned it is smart to go take a major in college that you are guaranteed a job
like nursing when you leave you will be a nurse
or education when you leave you will be a teacher (but they dont make $)
but if you go to school for something like music history then you will probably become a waitress

"find something you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life"
that and always work hard, surround yourself with good people, don't be nice when you need to be fair, and don't EVER take no for an answer.
combine those things with a little bit of luck and you will be fine.

actually male porn stars don't make that much per shoot. i have a friend in the business and said the average male makes a fraction of what the girls make per shoot. not to mention if you get some STD's in your "getting experience" days you can kiss any hope of a big career goodbye.

Couldnt have said it any better Pepe ...when your happy and bring equanimity into everything you do you attract higher vibrations, and the universe will place all kinds of opportunities at your feet.

I'm a big believer in doing something you enjoy / love doing. And also in the harder you work, luckier you get philosophy ...

Do you think a computer science major has plenty of options? I hope so because that's what I'm majoring in lol. I figure that everything needs software now so most companies need programmers. I just hope everyone doesn't get into the same field and take all the jobs...

the programming market is really competitive and rather bleak right now. You would do well to have something else to add to your programming degree such as business or mathematics majors/minors.

I've heard that. I hope its doesn't end up like the video game testing field.
A lot of people want to do it and there's not that many positions = low pay.

Its not what you know its who you know
Also I wish I had known this before but throughout school out of all the subjects and classes you will take Math and English are the most important because any good paying career cant be achieved without math(along with science) and english(grammar/speaking) skills
You may get rich but you will never get wealthy working for someone else
Be assertive and dont be afraid of being called or thought of as a dick or ********* cause nice guys finish last

one other thing, even if you think you found the right one, get a prenup. i see far too many guys get took for all they're worth because they were thinking with their pistol and not with their head.
