Goodlooks
I was thinking about working for an oil company after graduation too. My roommate is a co-op at Exxon and makes 30/hour
Seriously oil companies right now have so many perks and so much money man but if what you say is true, i might do something else. I honestly think Oilcompanies pay engineers the best money. Bar none, but everyone in engineering knows that the real money is in management. Engineer = foot soldier with an 80kpaycheck. Thats not real money man. Your career (salary raises) produces diminishing returns after 28. Thats when its time to get your MBA
And to address MBAs, please get one from a top 40 university if you can. Just as stated earlier, an MBA from University of Phoenix or some local 3rd tieruniversity will not get you the same job as an MBA from Wharton at UPenn. Guys at my job where I co-oped were getting MBA from all kinds of nonsense 3rd tierschools and wondering why they weren't getting promoted to management
Some HR departments are really bourgeois.
The university of phoenix has public traded stocks though. Something about that should ring alarms in your ear.

They make a lot of money if they have a management position. Up to 100k. I also read in yahoo that under Obamas new plan, there should be anincrease in jobs needed for system analyst/administrators, which is what CIS can get you into. I like the field, but Im just always open to other options. Imstill on my first year getting my GEs done so I still got time to switch it up. I also thought about getting an accounting degree, and doing the actuarything, but I took an accounting class and HATE it

and regarding the top 1%
Old but you get the point.
The 20/80 rule holds in all aspects of life; Taxes, Property/asset ownership, and income are no different.

I know principals in NYC make a lot. The principal at my moms school (in the Bronx) makes over $120K. You don't just "become" a principal though,same way you're not automatically a judge. They go though some rigorous '@$# and they're looked at under a microscope.

XOM's vertical integration allows them to make profit in the downstream area when oil prices swing down. Diversification is never a bad thing, and whileyou might not get comparably large profits to someone that has all their eggs in one basket, you also aren't in dire straits once the situation changes, asyou saw all these booming exploration companies have to sell off a bunch of assets just to stay liquid.
I respect your knowledge and opinions DKY and have seen all your posts, but if you really believe vertical integration would be the doom of IOC'sthat's a little extreme as is your prediction of 10000/oz gold by 2012, but to each his own. While it will limit profits at IOC's in comparison toexploration companies such as CHK and APA, investment choices and direction will ultimately decide which IOC's will be strongest.

Does one really tell his/herself "I wanna be a high school principal"? I cannot remember a time when someone actually said that.
The careers listed are careers that need time to get there...with probably the exception of being a Pharmacist.

if you noticed during the later stages of the oil bubble, exxon mobil's equity value stagnated as oil prices shot up. companies with such deepintegration do not have positive future outlooks in the face of long-term $120/barrel+ oil.
oil's bottom will be put in this year. i made a lot of money shorting energy companies last summer and predicted the commodity bubble crash. nowinflationary risk with the world's central banks' expansionary policies in response to the currently deflatoinary recession will cause oil prices tospike back up and the charts suggest it is close to bottoming, if it hasn't already. this is bad for exxon mobil's long term prospects.
the biggest issue with XOM though is the forthcoming pension fund crisis, that will surely gain a lot of exposure in coming months once its effects startbeing noticed. it has a $3.4 billion pension plan deficit, something that is going to have to be funded for appropriation. this will rock exxon's equityvalues in coming months.
