What's the single thing you've done that has bumped your income up the most?

Married wife #3. We're on year #3 with the business. Being layed off has helped focus me on business development and sales on the year doubled this past month. Business is continuing to do what it does, but it also is taking 2 new directions:

Used Construction equipment, and Power Generation consulting. The 1st one is working well, the 2nd one will take a few months to get going.

Borrowed money and crossed the border.

Married a filthy American Chick.

Divorced her after the Green card, and left with half of the property !!!!





Joke aside......an I.S. degree. (disclaimer: with this economy and globalization, the degree may not be worth much lately).

I prefer the import models. They are unspolied...

Got fired and started my own business. Best thing I've ever done (businesswise).

Employers only see one thing, a good bottom line and if it means eliminating positions to achieve the bottom line, they don't care about laying people off as long as it isn't themselves.

Quit working for the Japanese. They don't pay and don't promote.

Moved from R&D/SW Engineering to Sales... As someone posted earlier, "sales" is the best kept secret.
