I work a ****ty dead end retail job. I've worked full time since I turned 15. Oh, but I do a little bit of freelance IT on the side.
I basically just work hard and I'm really stingy...I only make 25k a year (often less). I've pretty much got a year's salary invested in my system.
My philosophy was always this...I'm not going to go to school for something like a liberal arts degree (which is what I really want) because I'd pile up debt and end up in the same crappy job I have now...and I wasn't going to go to school to get a degree in something I hate to get a better job, to pay off all the debt from school.
I really wanted to get a music theory degree...maybe even a Ph D so I could be a professor.
EDIT: To chime in on the Math discussion. I got a perfect score on my math SAT and I loathe it.
Do you have to work a lot of hours?
