As I wrote earlier, we met with some of my buddies from USC for brunch over the weekend. One of them, an MBA from USC, is currently doing some or all of:

1. Teaching yoga to juvenile delinquents
2. Teaching pre-school
3. Teaching high school
4. Teching junior high
5. Training to be an interpretor for the California court system
6. Traveling to different parts of the world for educating lower classes of people or to learn new stuff from them
7. Trying to be an actor
8. Trying to get a side-job while being an actor

I asked him how he is able to support himself and he said he is living off his savings from the job he had after he graduated. Of course, some of the above pays not-so-bad, so he is able to live with that, but in general, those are not steady jobs, and so he has to dip into his savings every now and then.

For someone with student loan payments outstanding from college, and a great MBA to his credit, to be doing what he is doing, it amazing. I would not be able to give it all up. He has the passion to do what he is doing, and hats off to him for doing that.
