Hi Daniel,

Could not agree with you more.  A qualification is unavoidable for some
careers, but the number of people out there taking advanced frisbee
throwing 101, with a side dish of binge drinking for beginners never
ceases to amaze me.  Simply, a dollar stashed away for retirement at 20
is much more important than a dollar stashed away at 40 - so why not
start as young as possible? 

Cheers,
Phil
