Considering the topic, I disagree.

Clemson is around $22K a year for a non-resident. And that's a public university and certainly not anything close to being a top tier school. :unsure: And of course, for that kind of $$$, they will let you stay on with poor grades. The Bank of Mom closed, but Clemson was more than happy to let my little sweetheart continue there with less than stellar grades. :angry:

My brother has never paid a dime for college. He got his double major and masters at UGA with grants and scholarships and in fact, when he was getting his doctorate at the University of MN, he received a $14K a year stipend as well as free room and board. He was also receiving tuition and $35K for his post doctorate degree at Duke (until he realized that being 30 years old and still in school was NOT what he wanted out of life, lol! :P ).

My ex-husband went to GA Tech on full academic and athletic scholarships. When he was redshirted his freshman year, they let him keep his scholarship and be a "manager" for the team just so he could stay.

You can ALWAYS go to college for "free" if you work hard enough. Which is why my kid's was $22K a year..... :okthumb:

Colin = one smart mofo :)

Jimmy Carter went there for a while. Did grad work in physics. Not what he got his nobel prize for ;-)

J. Carter has a vacation house in my subdivision. It's always fun to see the Suburbans and Crown Vics with their dark windows descend upon us when he's in town. :P

I'm much too uneducated to post in this thread, but I will anyway...

When the revolution happens, everyone will be forced to get a degree in sociology. You will no longer be too uneducated to post in this thread. Please wait until then. Thank you.

double post - whoops..

Question. How hard was the LSAT in your opinion?

I thought about law school, still do every once and awhile. Did you practice prior to smut?[/b][/quote]
Labret, I foudn the LSAT pretty easy. I would recomend a class before hand, so you get a feeling for their terminolgy. They used different terms then I was taught in my logic classes.

I started my multiemedia biz my 2nd year in law school, which turned to the porn biz pretty quickly. I liked law school, just hated most people in it. I HATE attorneys, especially plantiff attorneys. I stayed and graduated, and one day I will take the bar in Florida.

I figure when I retire, or have enough free time, I will start sueing people I don't like.... I have a list! :D

A law degree is a great education for any purpose - business, or anything else. It is nice to know all of your rights, and to see how the law really works.

If one gets accepted to an Ivy League school, there will always be someone to finance it. An Ivy League degree, and connections is a great future asset.

I am ready to start a dynasty like Bush & Kerry! :D

That's exactly why I'm getting a RE license - I have no desire to be an agent, but I want to buy and sell land for myself and I want to know the terminology and laws regarding RE. You can be my RE attorney - pass the bar in GA. :okthumb:

Re is something I have a big interest in. I have definately been diversifying. I met with a contracter this afternoon on the build out of office space in my new building in Tampa.

Where Wig and I are living is right on the verge of becoming very profitable to buy and sell. :)

Heck, if you look at my tax bill for some property I bought at a tax sale, you'd think the high $$$ value was already here.... :angry: (and the sneaky bastards didn't send it to me until it was too late to dispute........ :headwall: )

Um.... I have a hard time passing some bars - strip bars, goth bars, freak clubs ......

Others I can do without

you wouldn't wanna bet on that...you just wouldn't.

I strongly recommend AGAINST getting a RE license if you have no intention or desire to become an agent. If your goal is to buy and sell property, you open yourself up to potential issues as a licensed agent...

Take the classes, learn what they have to teach you, but do NOT take the test...

Ah, good point - thanks!! :)

Jim, just curious. Could you point out some of these issues?

One of the more objectionable issues is that you must identify yourself as an "agent" when entering a negotiation. If you are dealing with foreclosures, walls will go up immediately, as opposed to you being an interested investor wanting to help them.

Like any professionally licensed industry, you assume a heavier liability as an expert in your field. Who needs that headache if your goal is not to really be an agent?
