He's a senior in high school, and is wondering what to do with the
rest of his life. His initial aim has been going into engineering,
but has decided that math is not something he truly enjoys. (Although
he's good at it -- far, far more advanced than I am.)

Become an Engineer and then buy his own plane.

Ha, ha. Very funny. Become an engineer and watch your job be out-sourced by
some doofus with an MBA who doesn't know which end is up, but can run a
spreadsheet.

Uh, I'm an engineer with mulitple patents AND an MBA. No shortage of
jobs here in the U.S.. I get calls frequently. Lots of companies are
having a very, very hard time filling recs in the U.S. There just
aren't enough engineers. We have people getting hired right out of
school and getting relocation packages to move across the country. Its
pretty slim pickings for employeers out there.
