I live a pretty monkish lifestyle.  I buy some things here and there but it is all tightly restrained.  Even as my signing bonus went into my checking account I see I only spent just $40 of it so far in two weeks.  I plan to stash $1500 in savings monthly once I start working.

I suppose it all depends on economies of scale.  If someone makes $60,000, buying a DVD a day or something is pretty minor compared to a college student.

Thus explaining our current economic reality.

My dad told me when I went off to college that "debt is the American way of life".  He has a skewed view of reality, tho, since he didn't pay taxes at all during the 80's and has been sending the IRS a nice sizable chunk of every paycheck since about 93.  Fortunately I learned from his mistakes and am 100% debt free.  I keep one credit card for emergencies and have an ok amount (lower 5 figures) in my savings account.

I admit my savings account is pretty weak. But I'm working on it. I now carry no credit card debt, nor do I have a car loan. My car is 7 years old and I don't foresee trading it for quite a while longer, maybe even another 6 or 7 years. The only debt I have now is my student loan, which is still around $16,000. I need to save up and think about getting more debt in the form of a mortgage, but renting also has its benefits, particularly when the job market might dictate a move to a different city.

I'm pretty jealous of you debt free people.  I'm going to get a second job and pay the debts off faster.  Life will suck for a couple years but better that than pay tens of thousands of dollars of needless interest

There's more to live then money.

Do you actually believe that?  Anything that's worth living for is more accessible with money.  Money may not be the be all end all, but if it won't help you get where you want to desire, you're doing it wrong.

There's nothing wrong with money, in fact money is pretty cool and I need it to do all kinds of stuff I want to do, like travel. But you won't ever see mee sucking dick at a job just to get ahead and earn a bit more  $$$.

If I can earn nice money being me, that's cool. If not that's fine too. Pussy is one of the best things in live, and that's free.
Except for the getting them drunk part and the condoms. And then if you have bad luck, the marrying part.

But in seriousness, what kind of work do you actually do for the advertising firm? What kind of skills do you need to have to do well there? Advertising is one of the fields I was considering looking into.

My title is "IT Support", but in addition to doing general software/hardware support for the users, I've also done image work, Flash stuff and some solutions for scripted prepress/preflight. My background is a three year university education in graphic design with a strong influx of technical knowledge for print. After school I've been working for three different newspapers, two temp contracts and one longer employment for three years. Did IT support/prepress then as well. I decided to go for the technical side since I am a mediocre designer at best.

Serious answer is that I'm a Distribution Engineer of Natural Gas.  So it is my job to basically ensure that everything is up to regulation, ensuring that there is enough natural gas flowing through the pipes, setting up natural gas systems from homes to large businesses, designing gas regulator stations, etc.  Twice a year, I will go to conferences with utility boards and discuss regulation matters.

The pay is pretty damn nice for a starting graduate and since it is an essential utility, it is pretty recession proof.  Someone, somewhere in my district is going to use natural gas.  That is where I'm needed.
