I just found out a while ago that I pretty much flunked outta engineering school. I dunno. kinda really sucks. But at the same time, I think the reason I flunked out is cuz I didn't really wanna become and engineer. So instead of school, I'm coaching freestyle and instructing full time this coming winter,which should be pretty cool. But I don't know what I'm gonna do after that. Join the army? Fuck. I dunno. If I do, I'll be doing the Officer training plan, so I get my university paid for. Any ideas?

i hope you know that working as a instructor makes you very little money. i work crazy hours giving up my weekends and still barely make 400 every 2 weeks. I work at a shki shop to make up the extra money but i think you have to come up with a better paying job

Yea I know it doesn't make much. Happily, the coaching makes a lot more. It's still not a lot, but it does make up for it a bit. And I own and run a landscaping business in the summer which is where my money mainly comes from. So that's not the problem. I just need to figure out what I'm gonna do with my life after the winter, because right now, I really don't have a clue.

Some very goopd ideas coming out of the ns community here. I can really see that this is the true center of the world in terms of concentration of truly great minds. HAHA! Sorry. But at least I'm getting a laugh out of this so far. Not like, a big belly laugh, but at least a little giggle.

Here's the deal, landscaping business success (you will need speak basic Spanish). Become manager of your own landscaping business and hire a number of illegal immigrants. Pay them about about half what an American would make and take the other half in fees they need to pay for being a part of your landscaping firm. You in the process do no work and have a continuous flow of income. All you need to do is have your cell phone on you and organize jobs for them when you get calls from possible clients. Once a client network is established you are set.

True, even better if you get on Oprah's show with your new book. You'll be swimming in the money.
