ima sound like a spoiled little college kid but i get most of my money from leftover scholarship funds. Its quite a lot actually. Full ride with books, fees, travel expense, housing, and "living" costs and there is a lot left over.
BUT i also work at a contracting company, engineering firm, and flowershop during the school year.
During the summer i work for all of the above and also teach at a engineering summer camp for about $40 an hour.
but all dont go to the R/C....life comes hard with insurance, car payments, tax, girlfriend....etc.
