Re: CCIE SP: Dual CCIE

I agree with Joseph.

The financial firms don't pay that well to begin with compared to others in

Remember, I would not call, State Farm, University of Michigan, Bank of
America, Thompson Reuters or the State of Washington Service Providers. Yet
they ALL run one or more Applications of MPLS. I can go on and on.
