I do IT Consulting for Financial Firms. More specifically, I do business analysis on General Ledger software.

I've formed an S-Corp, i'm 1099 and i'm unbelievable overpaid...but i'm bored as hell.

Why can't I sell cars and earn the same $$$$????

Who has a "fun" career that pays the same as this? I'll be there in a second!!!

Well, I guess I see what you mean. BTW I love Ethan Hunt's civilian job description in MI:3....traffic pattern analyst. My job in medicine is fairly interesting, but there's a bit of a front end investment...

But seriously, find a job you like. I found one that I actually enjoy going to every day, and the best part is... they pay me to do it...

Could I make more money at another job? Most certainly. But I wouldnt want to be in those positions for long...

I believe they all haad superman(or at least super-hero) references but not all spoken. I personally like the Georges father being spotted with "a man in a cape"....

Actually I can't remember one in th backwards episode but i'm sure it was in there...

I used to sell cars. Believe me it's not all that fun. Sure you get to talk to people but if you dont sell, you wont make anything. You have to work from open til closing time everyday. This guy I used to work with does that and he makes around 65k a year. He's also very sly as well. you need to be husler to make money in that business. You should apply for internet sales if you wannna do that. It's still not that great.

Ya...it's the ol' "grass is always greener" argument. Trust me, in 2nd week i'd be saying "how can you live only 65k". You always want what you don't have....
