I suggested engineering so you could be useful in your life.  My cousin in a nurse.  She has a PhD in nursing which is kind of weird I thought.
I'm highly useful, simply unused.
You got a law degree.  That's the opposite of useful.
Personally I think he ought to become a latter-day John Edwards.

So unemployed, facing a federal indictment, and nationally despised?

But medicine, that's where it's at.  Hell, nursing school.  That's retarded easy.  My stepsister's kind of a moron and makes like $100k a year as a part-time nurse anaesthetist.

I have two pieces of news for you.

1) Medical school is fairly rigorous.

2) Everyone is "kind of a moron". It all depends on what facet of their life you happen to be looking at.

I am.  I have no marketable skills and barely an education.  Sure sign of a moron.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Now nursing school isn't medical school, is it?

Nursing school's pretty rigorous too, as degrees of that length go. Having said that, I believe we've all encountered people who go through even the *most* rigorous degrees with flying colors and still seem to not know their ass from a hole in the ground, haven't we?
