Post by **Scott** » Mon Jul 12, 2004 1:27 pm

This is a tough one, with all that I learn and have learned here I would like to go onto web design and hosting, but we'll see.

IT networking and security...the stuff fascinates me /biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

Well I put IT Networking and Security, because thats what I beleive 90% of the IT industry will be involved in, in the future.

I have a kind of plan/goal kinda thing:
- Start a shop selling computers, hardware and repairs
- From the same shop run a web design business
- Expand into hosting
- Expand into managing advertising (i beleive there will be a big market for this)
- Installing and creating specialist software (doctor's surgery for example)
- Installing and creating Networks for small to large businesses
- Providing security training, consultation and testing

It might sound kind of far fetched or impossible, but thats my set of goals and dreams I guess.

My ambition (true ambition) is to force microsoft into bankruptcy (spelling?!) however, if that doesnt happen, I would lke to ultimately run my own business, preferable something along the lines of computing, maybe a hosting company.

I originaly wated to get into networking, but after going to college and learning about web desing and media like photoshop and flash Id like to get into web building. I prefer the creativity and freedom you get with this kind of work.

Thats a bit silly, i mean you look at there revenues, should make you think twice, best try take over and get your hands into some of that money.

As for the poll, i did a null vote. Questions like that, along with "what are you going to do after school" or "what do you want to be" are what i loath most in conversations. I allways say i dont know, because i dont, a few (mostly family adults who i also 'loath') /censored.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(cens)' /> back with things like "well you should know by now ra blah ra da ra" but i dont feel as if i should know, sure i should have ideas of what i may want to do, but it baffles me when i hear of people say (at my age) "Im going to be a lawyer" and things like that. I dont really believe that young people should have set a deffinate 'career' path untill they've lived alot more. Idea's i have involve computers though, as like i chatted with trin a few days ago, there is now, but soon there will be a big worldwide boom of technology, and like the saying goes "technology is the future" or w/e, so either way im still undecided/indeffinite - ignore typos.

Yeh shane I know what you mean, I used to want to be a lawyer like all the other kids (only a year ago now) but it's obvious how quickly these things can change.

Shane and I were chatting about how as more and more people are going online, e-commerce will be part of the next "dotcom boom." Security will become more important than ever, especially for coporate networks etc. In the IT News forum there was a post about "Hacking School" which charged about $25,000 per week PER STUDENT to teach people how hackers get into networks, so these people could secure their networks better. We both think that security is going to be an absolutely massive industry in the next few years...
