[QUOTE="Lil, post: 655225, member: 17309"] I know Jabber just replied to this...but it's kind of a sore spot with us. This kid's whole life all he talked about was going to school for video game design. We find him a program and he doesn't even attend a class, just lazes away a year of his time and thousands of our money. So, yeah. Video games are not our happy place. True. There are guys on youtube who make a decent living just with their little broadcasts of them playing. We actually bought him a headset once because he wanted to be able to do decent video capture or something like that. He sold it within a few weeks. But I bet Jabber would love to make money playing WoW every day. ;) Who wouldn't like to make money playing a game instead of going to work. I sent a text this morning that said, "Good luck on your interview." He just texted me a photo of himself all cleaned up and in his interview clothes, in a car. Apparently on his way to his interview. :fingerscrossed: Really, honestly, just getting and keeping (especially keeping) a job would be HUGE. An absolutely gigantic step. [/QUOTE]
