Why not go for nuclear attack submarine commander, or US President, or pope, or UN Secretary General. On second thought, scratch pope -- the trophy wife would be out.

What was a joke post, yours or mine? I was very serious about you becoming a nuclear attack submarine commander.

Well honestly I am getting laid off and plan on attending Harvard to obtain Executive MBA. I hope I am successful in my mission. I think this is going to be the biggest challenge in my life. Once I have that, I think getting a trophy wife will be easier. Honestly, I have had enuff shit of working as an engineer, now I just need to think on a grander scale. I got to stay with business or engineering side, I can't become any of those things you suggest cuz I don't think I would be any good at it.

that's all.

thanks for suggestions...

Yeah, you can't have a trophy wife with an engineering job. Except by blind luck, but you can't plan on luck. If you want a trophy wife, you have to have power. Power means the ability to manipulate and intimidate other males. THEN, you can get a trophy wife.

(and all the mistresses on the side you can handle, too!)

If you want to be a hero, donate your time or money to a local charity. If you want to make sure that you're doing it for the right reason, do it anonymously. It's easy with a cashier's cheque or money order.

Yeah, go for the MBA. I've got one and it surely helped my early career.

I actually thought that you were serious, because some of what you said usually goes through my mind on a regular basis.
I won't get'rich' doing what I do, but I've made a huge difference in many peoples lives, and that makes me a very wealthy person.
