Everyone pretty much knows this, but I just graduated in 2004 (at the ripe age of 36) with my BS in Psychology and start grad school this August for my masters in Clinical Social Work.

Bachelor's in Political Science with a Paralegal Certificate and some law school.(until my daughter had a breakdown)

I was on track for my Master's but the class schedule didnt fit with my son's visitation schedule

I thought I was kind of a loser with the lack of edcuation that I had until I saw all these people with big time degrees getting laid off. I remember one time eating at this resturant and our server had a MBA. no work though. Felt bad for the guy.

Of the 8 people who I stayed in contact with from Grad school, I am the only one with an MBA that didn't get laid off. And I don't use the degree in my job.

Exactly. I think if you let thoughts of money consume you, youre going to end up very unfullfilled.

I am now just taking now what I want for the fun of it. (less pressure)

MBA Marketing
BA Mass Communication
BA Graphic Design
BFA - Working on right now

Minors:
Art
Computer Science
Archeology
Mathematics
Theatre

Once you whack out one degree, the prereqs' transfer to the others, so takes less time. Want to finish degree in some of the minors at some point.

I am very impressed with the education you've gotten in such a short time. Youre no dummy either in picking the health care field to work in. Good jub security.
