		<description>Well purchasing a house without looking at it or well knowing the area you are taking a big risk.  There are parts of Georgia that are beautiful but at the same time there are parts that well not a great area to raise kiddo&#039;s.  I&#039;d suggest transferring your job and let your husband grab a job down there also.  Lease a place for 6 months or so seeing if you like the area.  During the 6 months look for a house.  Before looking I&#039;d suggest getting pre-approved for a loan, you&#039;d hate to fall in love with a house you can not get approved for.  Once approved look for houses in that price range or lower you are offered.  Don&#039;t rush on buying first house or just to get the house search over with.  Take your time and get what suits you.  Also get an home inspection and always wise to get an warranty, they come in handy in case a/c breaks or water heater floods your new house.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>You will find it difficult to either purchase a house or enroll your boys in a (public) school in Georgia without you actually living there first.  Here&#039;s why:

-- for purchasing a home where you are not currently resident, you&#039;ll either have to have a letter from B of A stating you are being, or have been, transferred to Georgia, or you&#039;ll need to buy the house as not being owner-occupied.  It is very difficult to get much of a loan on a non-owner occupied house (effectively, a rental or vacation property).  Plus, your husband will have no established work history or transfer to Georgia, so only your income will count towards any loan you may need.

-- public schools all require proof of your living within their &quot;catchment&quot; area before they&#039;ll let you enroll.  This means you will need to either be renting an apartment or purchasing a house in the school district where you want your boys to go.

Taking all this into consideration, here&#039;s probably the most logical way in which to approach a family move to Georgia:

1.  Get a transfer with B of A to the town in Georgia where you wish to live.
2.  Rent an apartment and move there.
3.  Enroll your children in the school you want.  Have your husband look for work in Georgia
4.  In the meantime, look for houses and buy.

As a result of the loan fiasco of a couple of years ago, mortgage companies will look very closely at income etc. on your loan application.  The two of you establishing a solid work history in Georgia first will help a lot in getting a loan for the house you want.

Good luck.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Experience...my family has moved 4 times and have lived in two different states, and in two different countries.</description>

		<description>Do what you love. Take a moment and forget all the frustrations of majors and minors going through your head, parents, school, just forget about it. Think about what would make you happy. Imagine what you can imagine spending hours outside of a classroom studying, working on, and after that doing the job for years to come. Pay attention to how you feel, not about what other people want or what makes the most sense. If you think about the idea of studying business and feel an internal groan, then its not for you. On the other hand, if you feel a thrill, a sense of excitement then its for you. Think about interior  design, think about the coursework. Does it sound exciting? Interesting? Or boring and like it will just make you want to sleep? If its exciting, then do that. 

Don&#039;t do something because you feel &quot;it makes more sense&quot; do it because its what you love. If you do what you truly love, then ultimately you will be the better for it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Listen to your dad.

He is correct, and your idea of being a real estate agent and interior decorator is more than a little unrealistic. Most likely you will be unemployed and standing in line at a soup kitchen.

Incidentally, if your dad pays for your education, he gets to say what you take...  Don&#039;t cross him.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Look, if you push yourself to something you don&#039;t want to do then that&#039;s the only way you won&#039;t reach your full potential. Otherwise then do what you have a passion for as long as its something that has a good average number of job openings and as long as it brings you more than $20/hr (at least). 

In college you will get to learn more about what you want to do, so don&#039;t push yourself to decide immediately until your third semester, by then you should have a choice. So in your first year you should take a business course to see how you might like it. 

An interior designer is not bad at all. Its the kind of job that many people can fall in love with and it brings home a decent amount of money. Also if you go to college in New York for that then you will have great internship and job opportunities. 

Lastly, don&#039;t be a realtor, don&#039;t do that to yourself! Please research more on it and shadow someone, I guarantee you there&#039;s a 90% you will not want to do it. This is my honest opinion, sorry if it sounds too extreme.

Good luck!&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>If you major in business and you don&#039;t know why, that&#039;s just going to lead you to a job that you work and you don&#039;t know why.
If you want to pursue interior design, schools like Virginia Commonwealth University have a very competitive program. From here, you need to see if you have a background in the arts because that will be a requirement. Your first year will most likely be studio art classes of every media, art history courses and theory of art classes. If you have no desire to learn about things like that, then interior design may not be for you. You rarely begin an area of concentration without a solid base in art. 

If you&#039;re interested in becoming a realtor then business is not the only option. A major in communications can also apply and you can focus your electives in a minor in business. Communications will allow you to take some major-core courses, but also a variety of electives that can further focus your interests. There may be a lot of major changing, so maybe you should research several curriculum requirements for the school you want for the few majors you are interested in and take the courses that overlap so you are not left scrambling to fill in credits in your senior year of college.
It&#039;s a lot of planning on your part, but it&#039;s best to do it before you delve in and on the brink of running out of money.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
