Sounds great; I’m getting certifications (in the near future) in Microsoft Office, phlebotomy, HTML, and (of course) business in order to get the knowledge I need and the credentials. Currently someone just agreed to tutor me in investment management and soon I’ll have just the skills I need to run an online business and then proceed to end up with enough money to pay for my degree in virology.

All I am dead sure of is that I am not getting a degree in the subject if it isn’t my career path. Frankly I don’t see how on earth anyone should go to college for things they can get certified in, if you dont’ mind my saying. The minute I get those skills I will be in full swing and then I will be able to end up move ahead of my less than skilled peers, who wasted ten years on a useless degree instead of figuring out what they really wanted and would pay the bills.

Quite frankly these days, yet again, it is the small business owner wiht an actual skill that survives these things other than the well suited speculator.

Exactly. Sounds like a great plan. I’ve always considered myself a ‘Free Agent’ and that has served me well through the years!

Best of Luck! :)
