And how many other network engineers can honestly bomb a router they don't
like? ;)

I capture a paycheck every now and then. I even get the occasional raise :)
But in all honesty I dont do it for the money it's all for the greater good
and all that jazz, etc...It makes me feel better to go through the program,
it also helped me make warrant officer which is was an added bonus.

Kiss your family life and any other fun stuff you do goodbye for the
period it takes to study and pass the exam...In all seriousnous, you
just have to suck it up and keep on studying. The motivation is whatever
motivated you to begin to start with. For each person this is different,
my motivation is different than someone elses..I'm not motivated by
money, I get paid the same not matter what..I'm in the military and
comparable engineers make twice my salary on the outside whether I have
the IE or not...I just like learning, that's my motivation. So figure
out what your motivation is and whether it's strong enough to carry you
through the long hours of studying....
