    I'm in IT and coming out of college was the hay-day for the IT field (late '90s). Seriously, I knew people making 40, 50, 60, even 70k coming straight out of college! It isn't like that anymore, though. Companies have cut back and aren't spending like the world was about to end.

    Honestly you should. But on the flipside people would become firefighters for the wrong reason (money), instead of really wanting to help people. Same with police, and teachers. It's still sad the people that risk thier lives for everyone else make just enough to survive.

    More, the first time I made $40k in a year and had to file taxes I was PISSED.. there are basically no deductions and they take a nice chunk of your paycheck. I did much more last year but because I had a small business on the side I only had to pay about $1k.
