They are being really picky but not many people are applying either. Only a high GPA from a top 20 school will get you an interview. Pair that with the unsexy image of the field and it's hard to recruit.
If my skill set as an I&C Engineer is valuable, somebody please clue in my company. They are now having a hard time finding even entry level engineers in I&C but they are not showing any love to the ones already there.
The industry is top heavy and the pie gets divided up there.
I work in the field that you want to work in. Can you pass the FE? That will go a long way in proving that even though your GPA isn't that great, you can still handle basic chemistry and physics.
And yes, I use the material from those classes often on the generation side. I had a stint on the...
Have it appraised from a serious and reputable shop but make it clear that you are not in the market to sell. I'm sure some will be willing to share their research. Once you know what you have, search online.
I have a collection from when I was a kid. I still love to talk about it even though...
lothar - The WFC brokerage accounts give the 100 free trades for having a $25000 balance. Do they count the money tied up in stocks towards that balance? Also, how do you like the service itself? I'm planning on migrating from Etrade.
I'm on book 9 of the comic and a lot of the things added to the show are not in the book. The books are absolutely brilliant. By moving away from them, they are only making the storyline worse.
Edit - The guy cuffed to the roof ... hell the whole story in Atlanta is new. In the book, Glenn...
As much as I hate Slew bringing P&N in to this, he isn't talking tax on JNJ's profits but taxes on the dividends (currently capped at 15% I believe) that he gets from the stock.
"When I pulled on of those glass negatives out, I seen Yosemite ," he said. "As a young man, I worked at Yosemite quite a bit. So, right away I recognized it as Yosemite."

Sorry to hear about your father. I don't have the answer for you but you shouldn't rely on message boards for direct advice on investments. I will echo AtlantaBob and suggest that your family consult a professional. Also, be really careful of scammers. There are people that prey on people going...
Good FSM yes!
I have a AMD x4 620 box sitting idle because it's missing a graphics card and a wireless card. I'd like to get a 5770 or a 460 at a reasonable price. Hope they slide soon in the next week.

FYI, once you have kids, you probably won't have hobbies. Depending on the kids, you probably won't have guests either.
2800 SqFt is huge compared to my family's digs growing up.

Don't do it. It's one thing to put in available cash but another to put in borrowed money from a credit card. Get a margin account with a broker.....
Congrats. I passed the FE in the fall and the PE exam in April (license application is in the mail). I've been busy studying for exams since last May (LEED before the FE).
One more exam to go (GMAT).
BTW, I'm an EE as well and the FE was not that bad. I used my freshman physics book to review...
Security reasons? 20 World Leaders on 1 boat?
I understand protesting. I don't understand the people that go with the intention of creating violence. I also don't understand spending $1 Billion on one or 2 meetings (G8 + G20). Way to go "conservatives".
