[/ QUOTE ] CA - great action and an awesome place to live, likely some good culinary schools, SUPER high cost of living... AC - good action but a HORRIBLE place to live, likely no good culinary schools, pretty low cost of living (slums!) Tunica - good action but who the hell wants to live there, no idea about culinary schools, low cost of living (hickville miss) Vegas - great action and incredible place to live, several VERY good culinary schools as well as one of the best hotel/restaurant mng schools (unlv), great job opportunities when you get out of school, decent cost of living but going up like i said before, VEGAS! |

vegas would be great, but that would be putting a fox in a hen house, i would go nuts, poker,sluuts,drugs, they dont call it the city of sin for nothing, i would be having more fun then school, playing online is hard for me, i am a loosing online player and a wining live player, i dont know what to do
so confused but thanks for the info, i have looked into unlv because of there top program in culianry managment, jeez who knew planing for your future would be so hard |

We have the Restaurant School, Philly has world class restaurants. It's only 1.5 hours from AC by train or driving. Close enough to AC to play casino poker, but not so easy as going down the street so it will give you some discipline. Decent cost of living, compared to the other Northeast Corridor cities (DC, NYC, Boston). I love it here. |

Re: furthering my education
Providence you got Johnson and Whales University and you are about 45 to an hour from Foxwoods. Very fishy games and far enough away to keep you in check.

[/ QUOTE ] OP said he's from Chicago--if you've ever driven in Chicagoland, 45 minutes can be the time required to get you from one side of a suburb to another. Probably not far enough away to keep out of trouble. From the OP's comments, he may have some issues w/ self control. Don't know if Vegas is the best for him (gambling, drugs, sluts fairly easy to come by there). OP said father wants him to goto 4 year school--does he? |
