making it in the worl of stocks is tough. people go to school for years to get medioker jobs. you could be on top one day and scraping trash cans th next. i work at a restraunt, i like cooking, it's so laid back. also you don't need any degree to get started, most kitchens will hire people to train. thats what restraunts want, experence. all the people i have worked for said they would rather have someone who worked for years in a kitchen over some one fresh out of the C.I.A (cullinary institute).
