My #2 son graduated from high school at age 18 in 2001. Off to USMC boot camp a month later. He's a licensed real estate agent at age 22. He will finish his business degree in March 2006. He will have his broker's license in a couple months. He's has been self supporting since Nov 2001. The USMC provides some assistance for his college costs. He pays for most of it out of pocket.
I think we have a coddled generation of people who aren't trying very hard.
I think for being so smart and smug you should write in complete sentences. I guess you already know your that smart though?
