Hopefully by that time dsmith, i'll have dropped out of art school and become a guitar hero.

troy --> if you got the skillz then you'll be able to pay the billz. Those who are truly talented in skill and self promotion will always survive. Start promoting yourself now. Intern at many design agencies all through college. Keep designing, designing, designing. Then when you come out, agencies will fight to pick you up. Or then again, maybe by that time there won't be a high demand for professional design and you'll only wind up making around $17,346 a year. :P

I think i'm jusr going through a stage of disillusion, I want to study graphic design, because i love to design and make art, but if I don't enjoy it then it'll suck and someone told me something crazy about only earning 17k a year....but i didn't that that to be true. And talent is what matters...
hmm. maybe i should become a guitar hero.

"I wonder how much money you can make doing porn sites or even run a porn site!! "
And to answer that; a lot.
- method_c0
there will always be money in the porn industry on the internet, as long as it's filled with perverts. Doesn't matter how bad it goes with the economy; the dick needs the attention, if they can't get any pussy they just go digital.
and you can make money out of it!

"And if this just aint working for you, you can always go design some shit in the porn business or start your own porn site !"
Hey anybody doing the porn thing? (I'm not talking about your Peter North moves with your shorty)
I wonder how much money you can make doing porn sites or even run a porn site!! That must be interesting to say the least
- dsmith70
i suppose there is money in design if you make design your own money and print it but I _wouldn't_ advise you to do so

thanks, I feel loved. Now if you only you had a head full of soft curly brunette hair, a few "good"curves here and there, and...
Dammit. A beautifal girl just called me to see if I wanted to go to a baseball game with her. I missed the call.
Will I get another chance? Oh.... I hope so!
Will my life ever go right?

I'd say I live pretty comfy at 23. I'd be more comfy if I'd get the fuck away from this website.
I guess it depends on how much you expected to make. When I was 13, I wanted to be a vagrant dope addict, so I've exceeded all expectations, I suppose?

A good friend of mine was making 300,000+ doing catalogs and packaging for only 3 clients. He ran a one man shop. He eventually got into real eastate and move to China.
Not a bad deal. There is hope.
Sell, sell, sell. Your soul if you have too.

listen up guys!
you're all looking at it the wrong way. The secret is, wherefor u use your talents. You can say that there's not a lot of money in graphic design when you're looking for customers yourself or wait till they come to you. But this is not the way to go. You gotta use your design talents with other very good ideas/plans, if you don't have any good ideas yourself try to find someone who has and start a business. And if this just aint working for you, you can always go design some shit in the porn business or start your own porn site !
Design needs to be combined with great ideas, not only customers.
that's how I see it
