    Huge man, I'm glad I'll start making more than I have been.. Boss really killed me this semester so I'm not even making 600 a month.. With this new job I should be able to make 600 a week maybe more
    I'm now licensed to sell life insurance and annuities in PA and after working for a few months I'll be able to take my Series 6 and 63 tests and get my licenses for those as well. Those are the two I'm most looking forward to because those are the big bucks.

    Securities Licenses. I also have to get a Series 7 License but then it leads to this

    "A securities license entitling the holder to solicit orders for any type of security in a particular state. Securities agents must acquire the Series 63 license, in addition to a Series 7 or Series 6 license, in order to sell securities. To obtain a Series 63 license, the applicant must pass an exam to demonstrate knowledge of state securities acts and related rules and regulations, as well as knowledge of ethical practices and fiduciary obligations."

    Pretty much the first steps in becoming an Investment banker

    good investments. not terribly huge either. It's going to be about 3-4 grand for the study materials if I ever go for my general contractors license. I haven't looked into it much, but I would assume it would be similar if I ever go for my PE.

    Lol.. yeah they arent huge but thats just the study guides. then another $100 plus for each test I'd guess.

    No where near the 3-4k your spending but still money all the same

    Good deductible. Wonder what your other coverages are at? Never heard of that insurance company though.

    Well, my brother an I are having/had quite different college experiences lol. he spent all of last week in vegas wakeboarding on a school funded trip. I guess t was merited, as he took first in the intermediate class of the national collegiate championships...
    and now they are paying for him and his team to rent out entire trampoline warehouses to train. Just hope he can get a job when he graduates :rolleyes:
