My Engineering Job

The Texan Engineer started as many before him did.  Get a good engineering job with a Fortune 500 company with good benefits and modest pay.  What I began to find out is that my good engineering job just wasn't enough.  I seemed to find more things to spend my money on which left less money to invest.  After a nice car, nice house, motorcycle, etc., I was all tapped out.  In less than two short years I have found myself trapped in an engineering job that I did not like and in so much debt I had to keep working.  This is what it looked like.

The Texan Engineer started like this:

1.  Get a good education... Engineering.
2.  Get a good engineering job with a Fortune 500 Company.
3.  Save money and invest when possible.  Max out 401K.
4.  Almost no net income at the end of every month.

To put it another way I was paying my debt first and paying myself last.  After taking a look at my situation I realized that I needed to change.  Though I had a top notch education, it did not focus on the real things I would face in life when it came to money.  I needed to educate myself about personal finance and investing.

So up to this point the Texan Engineer was a Poor Engineer.  He had gone to school to get an education so I could get a good engineering job, so I could be a good employee.  What I actually became was a slave to my job because I was knee deep in debt.  Any disposable income I had, I spent on things that either depreciated in value or had no value at all.  I used the same tactics and work ethic that got me through college and applied them to learning about investing and personal finance.  This site details my beginning and then shows you how how I went from a Poor Engineer to a Rich Engineer.

What I am writing about is not a get rich quick scheme, but a way to turn your ENGINEERING JOB into an essential building block to building wealth, not debt.   I want you to learn how I used my engineering job to create sustainable wealth to pull myself out of debt and become The Rich Engineer.

Basically I am going to show you what the difference between a Poor Engineer and a Rich Engineer.  Both engineers start with the same job and same salary, but one does what the poor and middle class classically do and the other uses his engineering job to become rich.  If this interest you follow the link below.
