Steve,
Congrats. As someone who finished an MBA after 4.5 years of part-time study while working a full-time job, I think it's outstanding when people go back to try to change their lives (all it did for me was get me a raise).
If I hit the lottery, I'd probably go to law school next.
And congrats on the weight loss. I've been on WW since January 5 and I'm down 28 pounds. Makes me wonder why I didn't do this sooner, although the uniform cost this season will be higher than usual.
