  I've asked myself that question a million times in the eons since I graduated from Howard University in Washington, D.C.
  You see, someone I didn't know from Adam's housecat decided to foot the total bill for my undergraduate education, enabling me to earn a bachelor of science in electrical engineering at the age of 20.

conversations.value: I'm being taught how to eventually generate an awful lot of money for myself and I'm being paid to learn. It's such a deliciously wonderful situation that sometimes I laugh out loud in my car while driving home. Not only do I feel incredibly blessed, but I feel a heightened obligation to give back to society once wealth is within my grasp.
  Life is going well for me outside of Irwin Management, too. Later in life, people often ask if I felt I was paying my dues by living in Columbus, Indiana, and I can honestly say that wasn't the case. It wasn't a hardship posting by any stretch of the imagination. Excluding the KKK event that transpired right after I moved into town, it's proven to be a great place to raise a family. I might not feel this way if I were single, or if Sylvia and I didn't have any children.
  On those occasions when my wife and I want a taste of city life, as well as a parents night out, Indianapolis is about 40 miles to the north, while Cincinnati is roughly 75 miles to the south. These excursions are rare and most of our time is spent in Columbus.
  We've made a lot of friends here and are regulars in a bowling league that descends on a local bowling alley every Sunday evening. In keeping with our personalities, my dear wife is more concerned with having fun and relaxing when the 10 pins start flying. Whereas I'm looking to quietly, decisively steamroll my opponents when scores are tallied.
