Government contractor. Teacher of students age 18-50. I wish I could tell you more because DAMN I LOVE MY JOB AND IT'S COOL but suffice it to say I'm in a desert somewhere teaching stuff to armed service members. I have a high school diploma, about 180 college credits but haven't been motivated enough to make a degree out of them. My only relevant experience was 6 years in the Army, 6 months in Iraq.

If you're worried about what happens when you get older, if you can afford this or not, for a lot of us this is a hobby. When I was working at an internet phone company for $10/hr I would still pay for 3 accounts, because I wasn't spending money "pimping my ride" or renting blockbuster DVDs or going out drinking and shaking my tush on the weekends. But at the time my roommate was spending $900 a month some months buying new parts for his street-racing-worthy car. So don't ever let someone nag you about multiboxing bills; just find a way to make it work.

P.S.: For those of you making jokes about pimping etc, enjoy:
