Hello Jeffery,
At this point, you have so much invested in your pursuit, it would be a
greater failure to give up.
Hang in there. You will make it eventually.

Took the RS Lab for the 3rd time..no go.
I am getting to the point where all the time and money I am spending is out
weighing the reward here. Not to mention the family sacrifice that my wife
and kids are making to allow me the time to study. The frustration is
kicking in big time, I lab with Netmaster and IPExpert (this is not a knock
on them, they have been GREAT) but I am just missing something.
I have no one to study with because I live out in the middle of nowhere in
Northern Maryland, so I have to rely on what I read or do and have no one to
bounce it off of. I know I have the GS site, but that is not the same as
having a couple of study partners to work with on a topic over a weekend. I
am beginning to think that the "3 strikes you're out" rule is coming into
play.
I am not sure what else to do; is there anyone who can offer some assistance
here? Been in this position and made it? I just have had it with the long
drive down to RTP and back, spending $1500 (hotel cost and lab) for lunch
and getting pissed off at every return. I put in at least 4+ hours a day
studying and lab'ing. I have my own rack of equipment that I can access
from work, so when things are slow there, I am lab'ing.
Signed.
Frustrated to NO end.
JB
