People need cheerleaders.

There is a wealth of opportunities out there, perhaps just not in the traditional sense, but for me I recognized that traditions ended back in the 80s.

Its a new world, with a new way of working, and a new way of connecting with opportunities.

For instance, benefits are over rated. (price out buying them yourself and compare that to a healthy annual income and while a nice perk, would not lock me into a sub par low paying job).

The real exciting jobs don't go through job boards.
