Would have bought into AudioNet (Mark Cuban's little bedroom set-up) when I had the opportunity.:(

Being in computer game development every day, I'd say yes too :D

Moneys no so bad and my job is to make levels..play them...change them..play them...

At the end of the day its indoor work with no heavy lifting. It's all good.

Ahhh sorry...career paths...

I would not get into game development.

I would become a plumber and start my own plumbing company.

Seriously.

If I could go back in time I wouldn't be such a wimp in high school and would try to get more girls naked.  Then I'd write a game about it.

Actually, I just threw in that last part in order to keep this thread on-topic.

speaking of..

I've got a pal who bought 10k in Microsoft on the first day it was available.. many thought he was a complete idiot.. he has had many a laugh at them since then.




I remember reading in a Wired sometime before the bubble burst that a $10K investment in Microsoft in 1985 was worth (at the time) $2.2 Million. Not bad change.
