I have enjoyed being able to mentor with and learn from Cortney Orme these past few weeks. She has so much creativity when it comes to design; I am always learning a new technique or style from her. But along with other working Americans she is not making as much as she use to and the interior design field as a whole is hurting right now. This scares me to think that I am hoping to one day be in a job where I may not be able to provide for myself. I am hoping that by the time I graduate college that our economy will finally have bounced back so there will be job opportunities for interior designers and that they will be paying as much as they use to. I hope that this does happen because I have a major interest in design and I know that it is something I want to make a living out of. I would hate to have to sacrifice that for another job just so I can make more money in the long run.
You are wise to consider the job prospects of a career before you invest four years of college - only to graduate and not be able to land a job. What did you think about the quote you were asked to reflect upon? How did you like Dave Ramsey's information on the danger of credit cards?
