If you are in IT and making $$ in the top 4% then you are either very lucky or are very likely to be replaced by a team of $2 an hour workers in India...

for too long

Mother nature has not been good to me

I don't work....
Well, actually, that's not exactly true.
I went thru a big mid-life crisis after 22 years in the entertainment industry (post-production) and decided to change careers. I've taken the last 2-1/2 years off and wnet to grad school. I just graduated this past December with an M.A. in applied psychology. I am now an intern (in other words, I don't get paid) and racking up my hours for state licensure. I'll be going into private practice as a psycho-therapist.
Kinda werid starting over at age 44. Having a great time though.

To be honest, the pay is there, but you have to travel for it. The truth is, alot of times, it isn't worth it...living in a hotel room 18 hours away from home for 4-months at a time through T-Giving and Christmas and deer-season back home.
Oh BTW, I'm rolling off my current consulting engagement as of today to pick-up another gig in Dallas (just be looking for a red '02 L around Plano/Frisco soon
) Also, my "last" company is cleaning house of all the Hindi too.Ronald
