I too loved school and did very well but I'm surprised to find that I'm happy to be done! Well, not totally done. I'm definitely going to culinary school at some point in my life. I love to cook and it would be such a joy to really become a master.
My good friend did this in her later years (50's) and she absolutely loved it! It is very hard work though and she put in intense 12 hour days at the Culinary Institute but she so enjoyed it. In fact, when she graduated she worked part time at Gramercy Tavern (pretty impressive!) but she had to stop because she developed a very severe carpal tunnel case and needed surgery and cannot go back to being a sous chef. It can be very intense work. But she still loves to cook.

You deserve praise for a tough job.Enerchi|1353870112|3315136 said:JaneSmith said:Enerchi, don't put yourself down. You don't just have a BScN. You are a degreed health care professional. You save lives for goodness sake!
Thanks Jane! But I am still in awe of the brilliant minds that are PSers --- wow! Definitely a wealth of resources on the forum if there was ever anything we needed help with!
I'm not so sure I 'save lives' as much as stir the pot and shake up the lives the clients are living --- but it is for positive results in the end. To get from point A to point B, the clients don't like the journey and being faced with the changes they have to implement. Thanks for the encouragement - that was very sweet of you!

Another observation. Do you think there is a higher level of education here as it is more likely that people with higher education are able to earn higher incomes, thus being able to indulge in luxuries like diamonds, etc?

Nah. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Some truth, but not really. My SO used to frequent forums for luxuries: expensive. a$$. cars.
People can prioritize their income to allow for luxury purchases.
I know many people with 100k+ cars that don't have their BA/BAs.
They don't have many responsibilities to pay for, and no school loans to pay off.. so their $ goes to whatever they want.
I used to be part of a forum that focused on another luxury.
Most of the users were women who weren't very educated at all.
They married rich, and were pretty.. dull. It was all about what their HUSBANDS do.
I think PS attracts people who want the science in fine jewelry. I think that characteristic to want to learn is the common PS ground here.
