        Yea its all relative to where you live. I have a friend that works up in North Dakota that makes 55 grand a year and will have his house paid off before the age of 40 and is living very well.

            Timer I was the first employee hired by my manager to start and grow a technical staffing company. We grew the company to about $3 million in sales over 4 years and have survived this economy. I don't have ownership but have a 10% flat commission structure, expense account and higher base. Good experience and I landed a Fortune 50 client.

            Timer you area cool dude. Glad we are talking like normal people. SOrry I was an ahole to you my brother.

            What are you in school for?

              My dad was clearing about $600K when he was working

                          Timer my company places IT employees on contract positions or into permanent positions. On contract we make our money by charging one rate, paying another and clearing the difference. For example if I placed you at $20.00/hr and billed $40.00/hr at a 15% burden rate the company would make $680.00 a week if you worked 40 hours. If you have 40 contractors that is good money coming in each week. On the perm side we take 15 to 20% of a salary. SO if I placed you at $50K at 20% my company would make $10,000. The owner of the Ravens opened a technical staffing company in 1984.

                          I was just being a dick man. Your business is your business. I have mixed feelings about Creditwagering but won't comment on your situation.

                          HVAC Engineers make decent money. I've placed a few HVAC engineers in my time. Very smart people.

                          Get into software development or website development. Good money in that. I respect the fact that you work and go to school. I sat on my ass and was given money in college. My parents still give me money for no reason. Good people but I was and am a spoiled dickhead.

                          Like any games on Saturday man?

                              Yes Timer it can be profitable but selling labor is not easy. People do crazy stuff like the Network Engineer I placed at a bank; he came in to take his drug test high as a kite on yayo and I could tell. Took his drug test and of course failed it. Why not just save everyone time and turn down the offer. Guy was pacing around the office like a damn crackhead.

                              Careful with real estate man. You are a smart guy so I know you will do well but you need to really know your stuff and dealing with tenants at times can be a real hassle. Come up with a new Poker software and bank off it. Timer how old are you and where do you live if you don't mind me asking.

                              Security in IT is growing. No matter how smart you are there is always a smarter hacker waiting to crack the code. CCIE is where it's at my man but any Cisco certs really help.

                              You ever make it to Florida Timer? f so you have a place to stay in Orlando (Windermere to be exact).

                                Timer I am a good guy man. I go off the deep end at times but that is something I need to work on. My brother moved to San Diego last year and really likes it. He works for John Deere Water.

                                Damn man you are 20? WTF How were you busted for your DUI?

                                SO how much can you win in Poker in one night (median number I know games and places have different limits).

                                Take a vacation man!

                                  Do you seriously live in Windemere? If so, I'm going to piss myself laughing. You're probably 5 minutes away from my family's vacation home. Cripes - you may even live next door. Small world.

                                  And I'm reading that Vegas Dave thread over there right now - on page 5 and I'm truly stunned. I realise that there are 2 sides to every story but wow. Hope everything's worked out for the best for him.

                                    Damn man sorry to hear about the DUI. What did they charge you with? Can you drive now or is your license suspended for a long time?

                                    That is good money for your age man. Most 20 year olds have not seen a dime yet. So how do you know about the games?

                                    Damn man your girl cousins need to bring a few friends. I bet you do very well with the ladies Timer!

                                            Timer I meant how do you know when and where the games are? DO you have regular games you attend?

                                            Weren't you underage when you got your DUI. They let that slide?

                                            Keep your head up man you are young and seem very mature for your age. DUI charges can come up on background checks too so be very careful from now on. The economy sucks so at least you have as job; use it as a learning experience my friend.

                                            Timer PM me if you ever need to talk. I did a ton of stupid crap when I was younger but was never caught.

                                            Glad we are acting civil to each other

                                              I dont know about other states but here in CA is legal to have card rooms and there are Indian casino's everywhere. But for me there are 4-5 card rooms within a 15 mile radius that i routinely play at. They have games going 24/7 usually 5+ tables so your always going to be able to find action. You need to be 21 for these but ive had a fake id to play poker since i was 19.

                                              Weren't you underage when you got your DUI. They let that slide?

                                              It dosent really matter how old you are. You can get a DUI if your 14. Basically if your over 21 the legal ramifications are the same but you can get your license back basically after 30 days and your insurance will still hike but not as much as mine will be.

                                              Keep your head up man you are young and seem very mature for your age. DUI charges can come up on background checks too so be very careful from now on. The economy sucks so at least you have as job; use it as a learning experience my friend.

                                              Timer PM me if you ever need to talk. I did a ton of stupid crap when I was younger but was never caught.

                                              Glad we are acting civil to each other
                                              Yea your a cool guy to talk to as well.

                                              But hey man in going to have to get some sleep here. nearly 4 am, cant pull the all righter like you just did. I'll catch you around pal
