Afford it? Know all that stuff missing from everyone's garage? That was me!

Actually, the guy who said stay in school was right. It took me 10 years to get my degree and I worked the whole time. I remember hocking things just for parts to keep my old VW Beetle on the road.

So what did I wind up doing? Don't laugh- I'm a librarian. If you're still laughing think about this: I make as much money as an experienced ASE certified master tech. and my hands never get dirty. I'm ready to retire at 52 and I'll never have to work another day in my life- this is after putting 2 girls though college. So to you young guys out there- Get the training and or education, do what you love, and the rest will come to you.

End of sermon.
