I've been thinking about investing lately, and would like to get started. I've been doing some light reading to get my feet under me, but I was wondering if any of you have advice for a young guy with minimal cheese. Cheese is accepted lingo in the stock game, isn't it?
If you haven't, read Benjamin Graham's "The Intelligent Investor" before you put a single penny into the markets. Classic investing primer that was the foundation of Warren Buffett's success, among others.
I've spent almost all of my career in human services, primarily working with people and children with disabilities. I've been a manager for the last six years and I'm ready to go try something else. Any suggestions and any jobs to avoid at all costs? Short of working the pole or being an arms dealer I think I'm open to just about anything.

Avoid retail - but you mentioned " career", so I assume this is a moot point.
If you are looking for a break from the rat race, bartending or waitservice can work well. Aside from the late hours, you can make a lot of $. You referred to working with the (developmentally?) disabled, so I wager you have the stores of patience necessary to deal with the occasional terrible customer.
I have always thought healthcare to be a sound choice, given that it is fairly sure to always be in demand. Lots of school, but lots of money - and your empathy factor may pay off here as well.
The real question is: what would make you happy? You are at a cusp many of us are too timid to contemplate. Make the most of it.

Thanks for the feedback. I've looked at healthcare and have actually worked hospitals before but unfortunately that would definitely mean returning to school full time, something that's not an option right now. And when you add kids and a mortgage relocation comes off the table. I will be honest, I'm scared out of my mind but I can see the writing on the wall in my field in this state and it's not pretty. They always says it's easier to find a job when you have one so here's hoping that's true

Anyone in California looking for a new dog? One of my bestest friends has her best friend up for adoption. Spread this to anyone you know who may be able to help. Here is the Craigslist link.

Holy crap that dog is adorable. If your friend was on the east coast I'd be contacting her.
That is one badass dog! If I had the money to have it shipped to me in Alabama I would be on it. Hopefully a fellow dog lover will be able to help her out before she has to leave town next week.

So, it's been a while. What's been going on around here for the last 4-6 weeks? Did I miss anything spectacular? Meltdowns, drama, excessive foolishness?

So basically I have an unused plane ticket, basically only good for going to Charlotte. The only other locations cheap enough to fly to (on the balance which I have) are close enough to drive to in less than eight hours.
So, what's good in the Carolinas for a weekend trip? And how can I make that as cheap as possible?

Hahaha, that's a pretty accurate description, frighteningly.
So, you guys have some news for us?
And now everyone on the bus is staring at the crazy person looking into his hand and laughing hysterically. But at least it's keeping the seat next to me open.

If you want to rent a car come on out to our place and hang out at the beach.

For the audio nerds out there, this guy will take a recording of you and your spouse saying "I do." at your wedding and use the resulting waveform to make a cutout in your wedding rings. An example of this is:

My gramps always bought us bonds as a kid. Like instead of getting cash or toys for our birthday we got $100 in 12 years. It always was like "thanks grampa..." as a kid but as I got older I monitored them growing. Then I found out all the grandkids got stock in PECO (PA electric) that would take the profits each year and roll it into more shares. It was fun as a kid monitoring my money and interest and seeing how the system works and my money grew. And in collage those bonds really added up to a lifesaver in some situations. Turns out those bonds were totally a great idea gpop. You the man.
A similar idea.. I know someone who puts money into an account for her nephew for most holidays and such. It's a travel fund to be used after high school My sister is pregnant and I've already decided to copy that idea (and yeah my grandma gave me bonds when I was young too, but stopped along the way...)
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

Smh...now I wish I never bombed those spelling bee test so I wouldnt have to sit on the stage.
True story: I won the geography bee in my high school and was in the final 2 for the spelling bee, then I spelled my word in Spanish (correctly, mind you) and I lost.

I was 3 people away from going to the National Spelling Bee in 6th grade (suuuper intense, those parents were crazy). that was before I realized that being in the spelling bee was not cool, which led me to intentionally misspell chrysanthemum in 7th grade to avoid qualifying for the Bee.

Just the fact you had to try and spell chrysanthemum is worth an applause. No "i" and I would of lost it on the first syllable.
