When is it a good time to get your College, Graduate or PhD degree?

When is a good time to get your College, Graduate or PhD degree?

Before marriage or after marriage ?

There are some who would say that you should put off getting married and continue to go on to a higher education. Then there are some who have gotten married and then continued their college education while raising a family and working. I am one of those who got my college degrees after I was married and working at the same time. If I had not have gotten married at an early age, I would have continued on to college, but I was not ready for college at an early age because, I had other things on my mind and I was too busy having fun and traveling around the world in the U.S. Navy. Then there is the question of what college to attend and what subject you wanted to major in, and your profession that would give you the greatest joy. I always had a liking for business, but as the years passed I wish I had chosen Law for my career. I did think about being a corporate lawyer at one time, but I have always had an interest in Accounting and Finance. I guess that is because I was always good in math and with numbers. Besides, the classified ads were always filled with positions for Accountants and Bookkeepers. I was in logistics while serving in the U.S. Navy, which was the closest field to Accounting and Bookkeeping. I would wager that if a survey was taken you would have a 50-50 split on this matter. Then there is the matter of having the funds to continue on to college and beyond. Not everyone is blessed with wealthy parents who will send you to college. So there are pros and cons on this matter. Even the internet does not have the answer nor facebook, or twitter. I am sure someone on one of those sites would agree and others would disagree with my comments. Just remember your journey is filled with choices and more choices. Also remember that whatever you decide, you must live with your decision. "http://amyles-allen-myles.blogspot.com"
