bry623,

I completely concur with what Chode just wrote. There is no security in corporate America these days. It used to be that loyalty and longevity with the same company bought you better pay and job security - but not anymore. With all of the downsizing, consolidations, buyouts, mergers and outsourcing - the only people who make it big in large companies are the CEOs and other executives. I say this as someone who worked for 13+ years for the same consulting firm - only to get outsourced and let go.

I believe that small business or self-employment are the safest bet that this point.
