"some succeed because they are destined to, but most succeed because they are determined to"

I like that - I think it will be my new tag line after my e-mail signature

I also returned to school 20 years after graduation from high school -I have JUST 16 credits left to go for my BBA, will only need 16 credits for my Master's in Accounting after that....it's tough, there are days you just say "WHY??? why am I doing this to myself????" but deep down you know it's right and it's good.

Congrats Ike, now you'll have more money for mods!!

My wife & I are both going for our MBAs right now and both HATE IT! Work only reimburses enough for 2 classes/ year, so it'll be a while before I finish!

Congrats Ike, your post really got me thinking. I'm doing fairly well in IT after 10 years, no degree, am just self taught with computers. I have maybe one more step up I can take without getting a degree, then I hit a ceiling. Might have to weigh my priorities next year and see if I'm up for it. Always HATED school, like A LOT... but seems you were the same way, so who knows.
