I have a few friends who make 6 figures with only HS diplomas...2 work for CHP and the other is a Correctional Officer as well....that unlimited OT is great pay....Congrats to everyone making good money the legit way.
I work for the state as well now but my 6 figures only involves 40 hours a week.....sometimes...
I could say my wife my makes more than anyone here but she is at our shop 7 days a week...but to her it's like a damn women's book club meeting...lol [ December 22, 2011, 01:17 PM: Message edited by: CornOil_&_Boost ]

I was originally going to do business, but this last year a few things made me change my mind. I am now going to school to become a radiologist, wish I would have picked it from the start lol. I have always had an interest in the medical field & the pay has me more than convinced lol.

70 hours a week ain't bad, got to pay the cost to be the boss. Nobody balling ever works a 40 HR week. Minimum work equals minimum results.

college is over-rated.
who the hell would want to work 40hrs a week and make 6 figures usually with a BS degree within a few years of getting out when you can work 2jobs pulling in 80hrs+ a week and MAYBE get that 6 figures right out of high school. i dunno about u but id rather work my ass off all day than relax at home after a normal work day. relaxation is over-rated.
the 4-5 years sacrifice for college to boost up your credentials, resume and gain that applicant advantage just aint worth it
yes, for those considering college or the naysayers, it is a proven fact that your chances of finding a job and a better one at that is greatly improved with a college education vs someone who has come off the street with only a highschool education. however, thats not to say there arent some success stories of those with only high school educations making it big but thats not the norm.
go to school, your mama will be proud of u.

He spends over 1500 hours at work then someone who works 40 hours a week. You can keep that.

+1, I mean if it works for folks, that is great. But like I said earlier I am a fan of working smarter not harder. Although I put in a lot of hours too, but that is mainly because I run a business.

I'm a senior at CSU Stanislaus as a psychology major. I'll try to get into some kind of counseling environment after I get a Marriage Family Therapist license (MFT).
If you aren't sure about going to college and you're a male ask yourself 2 questions; do you like women and do you think women go to college?

May be true for some people but for most a college education/degree will improve ones chances for a good career and will certainly improve ones quality of life . To me its well worth the years of time and effort in learning .

Time = Money, right?
If you agree, then:
60k for 40 hrs is actually a "better hourly rate" than 100k at 70hrs.
If you are paid bi-weekly:
70 hrs a week: 26 pay-periods in a year at 140hrs/pay period = 3640 hrs
100k/3640 hrs = $27.47/hr
40 hrs a week: 26 pay-periods in a year at 80hrs/pay period = 2080 hrs
60k/2080 hrs = $28.84/hr
Based on your definition of "bi-weekly" the number of pay-periods might be +-1. But in either case, the logic is the same.
Not tryin' to hate but there are plenty of 40hr/week jobs with close to or over 100k.

Yeah instead of LOL looking it up even if college cost 100k in the end college graduates make more money in the long bud its only a google seach away...that 100k cost to be the boss is right college grads make over 1 million more $ than a high school grad...yeah you got your steve jobs, bill gates and various rap stars but you got a better chance hitting the mega millions than being "that guy"
