Do your research….and don’t be an idiot!
Even Hulk Does His Research
http://www.troothandmarketing.com/
So this blog post was basically inspired by friend, and business partner, Pat. He works under the business name “honestly wealthy” and is a fairly busy guy. He goes to school full-time, works full-time and owns a marketing business. We usually get together on Sunday or Saturday and try to be productive. This last weekend he was ranting about his fellow classmates and fellow college- goers and their general lack of planning…and research.
Basically he was stating that he knows many people that work extra hard to enroll in college classes, and NEVER even research and check to see if financial aid is available. He also stated that he has talked to many folks at college who never even study for placement exams. When you study for placement exams you end up placing into more advanced classes, and saving yourself time. Research always saves time! So basically what we have here is a case of people either wasting their time or wasting their money…or both. This doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. I would be willing to bet these same folks complain about the cost of classes and complain about having to go to 3 years of entry level math…..lol.
How often do you see people either at work, or school, or at their local hangout, complaining about things that could’ve been prevented with proper planning and research. I find this kinda fascinating. It’s almost like people need drama in their life to complain about. So much so that they take an active role in creating their own drama. How silly is that?
