Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Make it's time to do something else for a living...
I've been toying with two ideas to deal with the wholesale outsourcing of American jobs, personally.

When my day comes, and I'm outsourced, I'll either:

1. Find something completely unrelated to computers to spend my life doing.
Teaching school
Handyman
Car Repair
Sales

or

2. I'll find a business idea where I don't think people are doing a very
good job with technology and I'll build a product and sell it as
a small businessman.

I've been trying to get us to a point where we start saving some money each
month to get our debt down and deal with the fact that teachers or handymen make about 1/2 of what a programmer does.

The other hope I have is to stretch out my computer career long enough to get my wife graduated from Physician's Assistant school and I'll go be Mr. Mom.

music. At this point, I'd probably make more money, and I'd definitely have more fun.

I'm hoping to be teaching in a few years.

I'm preparing by not making any real money (but still saving).
