I always thought the really smart people are the ones who "work" for a couple years, and then just retire - eg. Glen Coffee decided he didn't really want to play football any more, and retired after just 1 season in the NFL. Amanda Bynes decided she didn't really want to act any more, and retired aged 24.
Haha - I am trying my best to retire before I am 30, dont know if I am smart enough to do so though .
Will only finish my education when I am 27 so that only gives me 3 years of work (plus 1 1/2 I did after my 2nd Degree)...

@Sketchy: They don't live in Manchester. They commute from Cheshire and North Wales. Michael Owen's house has got 20 foot high privet hedges, I've seen it. Gary Neville's house is shaped like a swastika.
And to quote the TV programme, "only fools and horses work".
In Hagar's world, 25.5 years education = 4.5 years output. It's no wonder there's no 'high level research' going on.
Can't everyone just be a farmer like Pol Pot said? He was a good fella.

Can not blame a guy for trying .
If I can shift a few patents and hence royalties for my ideas, assuming I got enough pound notes coming in I will retire ASAP. Work sucks, been there got the T Shirt.
