    So yeah, I'm up all night most nights... Unfortunatly I'm up all day too :(

    Yeah well it's better than the alternatives, and making $60,000+ annually as a college student is pretty sweet not going to lie lol. Basically I work directly with our products while I'm at work, then at home I update computer models, crunch numbers, and make a plan for what I need to do while at work the next day. So some nights I get off easy... Other nights I don't sleep at all.

    And god forbid I have to write a paper or have a upper level math/physics test that I need to study for.

    Very few when I'm actually in the building... But when I'm waiting for a computer to give me results there isn't much else to do lol.

    Daaaaaaaaaang! Good for you though, sounds like you certainly work for what you make! I have trouble balancing my check book (negative? Shoot, throw another axanthic pinstripe yellowbelly on the tab, why not!, lol!) so I can't begin to imagine what you deal with as far as math.

    Well I just finished up Calculus 3 and physics with calc 3 and am now taking differential equations... I enjoy math but not when I am running on 2 hours of sleep.

    I actually save most of my pay checks, my girlfriend and I live on $2,000 a month (so 2/5ths of my monthly pay) and put the rest in a high yeild savings account. The plan is to buy our first house in cash in about 3-5 years.

    I'm an electrical/optical engineer. I work for a defense contractor that makes range finding and weapons grade laser systems for the US armed forces.
