Here it is: I just graduated from college last spring with a bachelors in science (not business related) and I have about $16,000 dollars in student debt.

The business is not rocket science.

If you are interested in how I can do this for long stretches of time, I have lots of science and personal experience/experimentation that I could share.

I am contemplating getting my Bachelors Degree in Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Engineering Technology in order to exhaust my GI Bill.

That may be more art than science, which is why I don't like seeing the word "conservative" in investment packages.

A quick bit about me- I'm a UGA graduate finishing up a degree in Computer Science and Data Science (Go Dawgs!).

There’s no real science behind that number.

You may want to compare some of the local turn key product with what you can buy off the shelf.These are not rocket science type purchases.

The documentation to get one calculation over the other is more an art than a science. - one time expenses can be removed as long the correct documentation is provided so make sure to keep all your invoices and capital expenses not just for us but for your accountant as well so they can create your depreciation schedule during tax time- The 7 year Fridge if depreciated, can get added back, however sometimes new equipment can be expensed completely as bonus depreciation depending on the tax incentives during the year so check with your accountant on what the options are.
