Good for you nate i have everything from your name job histroy to your house number an your ssn to.an really dont give a fuck about you nate the only thing i would like you to do is pay lee all the monies you owe him an past that is just bad histroy on a deal me an you had.just for fyi nate no one cares about you basketball or college education but you an that what should matter to you who cares what you may have or havent done
^^^ right....LOL. If you had all that you could easily post links to where I went to school. FAIL.
But anyway Dave this is a great post, let's leave it on track and not get it locked. No need in discussing matters that are not going anywhere. The forum/mods are tired of hearing about it.
Cheers and Happy Holidays.
+1.
1. I don't see why people on this forum feel that as an individual we have the "need" to provide them with personal information like house, phone, or any kind of "proof", just to make them feel better that your reality is their fantasy.
2. I think people who don't go/went to college shouldn't be posting in this thread unless he/she plans to go back to school or keeps it school related.
***So if you're illiterate and want to stay that way, GTFO! Stop ruining a good thread.

You are the epitome of the word Contradiction...I've seen stories, on HERE from YOU, talking about dunking on Labron James to now almost being in NASA...you're still in the ghetto in Stockton right? but you don't need public approval huh.... I get it now.....

I would have to be one of top 10% of Engineers to make even close to what my business clears in a year....but that's because I took a lot of what I learned about business management and a Business Life Cycle in school.
But it is also nice having a career that only schooling has provided and opened a lot of doors for me and my family [ December 20, 2011, 12:35 PM: Message edited by: CornOil_&_Boost ]

I am not sure why that is hard to believe (never met LBJ, But I did dunk on Terrell Owens at San Leandro 24hr fitness, back in 98...lol). And no I was never close to being at NASA. I was accepted to a robotics program them and GE sponsored. I was a collegiate athlete that took my education serious and saw an opportunity to get a free education and took it very seriously and maximized it. I guess it is unimaginable that you and I are some what in the same field? And also share the fact that we are business owners? I dunno what to say man. I live life. Even to this day I maximize all opportunities. I am in excellent health physically, mentally and spiritually. Oh yea and I coach basketball, still can hoop with the best of them and box. That must be the straw that broke the camels back... hahahaha.
Cheers gents, and Happy Holidays.

Business classes. Most colleges offer certificate programs as well. Where you learn bookkeeping, MS office and basic business management. That can get you going quickly. Good luck. A down economy is THE best time to start a business.

Why do i need to prove who you are?maybe to feed your ego or something,i just stating info is easy to get on people if know were to look an you seem to have lots of that.an i give you an hint so make you a better person dont brag about what you have done because no one cares in the internet world.
An for guys thinking about getting in the automotive feild go to a jc with a automotive program an take a small electronics class. This class an programs are one of your best bet if want to work on cars.an stay away from the big trade schools the just want your money.

True but sometimes it's not what you know,it's who you know.
Absolutely. Networking is essential for career advancement. Most will tell you that who knows you is most important. However, you will have more opportunities for others to know you if you have that open door.

Don't mean to thread jack but I have a quick question. I'm going to be looking into joining the military in a few months. Any college courses that will help me in any particular military jobs or do they strictly go off your test results from the asvab

I would say get a business degree, you actually don't need a degree to open a business, but it helps. I'm looking to open an injection Mold company in a few years, so I went to school and got an MBA (Masters in Business Association) and I'm partnering up with a guy who is really business savy.
The most important thing in opening a business is you have to be experienced in what your doing, you can't open a mechanic shop, when you have never worked on cars.

THIS!!!! and save a ton of money and be prepared to go without a paycheck for a while unless you already have customers/contracts lined up....but still your initial costs and salary to yourself, usually eat up profits for a while...
and just keep in mind that over 80% of new businesses fail within the first two years....
Another good education would be to talk to people in that industry and learn from them as well...most won't tell you jack, but you'll get a small few that will...
Take some classes in Finance as well...being your own accountant and also learning the costs of employees is a big plus too....depending on what business you're opening.
