Now, well......gets a bit boring at times. But it is nice getting up when you want, and not having to be somewhere at a certain time.
other than that, it's like anything else, it gets old.

Illini said:WB- How did you get into the field? I have a finance degree, but only a bachelor's. Do you have a master's, or even higher?
WildBill said:I have just a bachelors in accounting. It was a long process I lucked into I guess. Been a financial analyst most of my career and found a job a few years ago in a corporate finance role. Eventually the bosses put me where I am because my interest in the industry makes me well suited for it. Like most people that end up in good jobs, you just have to get into the industry you like and are willing to work at harder because you enjoy it. Most of the people in my company really don't care about gambling and don't have much interest in following the industry, they just do the job they are assigned. To get ahead you have to do more than just the job and if you like what you do, that sure makes it easier.
If you do that, chances are someone will notice and move you to a spot you enjoy as long as you are patient.
