Yeah, librarians and such are in such high demand and get paid So well... Engineers of all disciplines, Architects, and others who took "trade school" courses are now SO obsolete and poor.... You made it sound like your father didn't know too much.... Depends. If you are an engineer, say electrical or civil with a little geology you could move to Chile and do quite well. If you were a teacher of Spanish and English, lots of nice countries to live in. Brazil is on a building boom, so is China. Australia is better off than the US too. Electricians can get jobs about anywhere they can socially fit in. But if all you have is a BA, or MBA (more bugger all) or a PhD in basket weaving your screwed. McDonald's for you. You only want to pick one of two career paths. One that can't be exported like dentist, government, or local food services...or go for something exportable like electrician or teacher. If you like moving, take the later. Manufacturing in North America is dead unless it has local sources of materials like carrots into food. Your options are only limited if you think USA as the only place in the world. And it is not. I have worked in CAN, USA, Scotland, Norway....and no regrets. Opens ones eyes up good to live in various places. -- First rule of holes: If your in one, don't keep digging. So in the hole, why do we insanely want more debt? |

It's no wonder we are having a hard time deciding which of you two flaming assholes is the most obnoxious and offensive.

Jim is so embarrassed about what he actually did while in the Navy, he won't talk about it. -- I'd much rather be a champion of the powerless than a lickspittle of the powerful. |
