How important is education? To further that point, is the value of education different based on an individuals socioeconomic standing?

The End is near Daddy
Well, the end is near. If you haven't heard you can see it all over television; it's on the news, on the ticker at the bottom of our favorite television program and in commercials. The kids are talking about it, blogging about it, posting it on Facebook. Every time you turn around you read about it in the newspaper or in the latest magazine.
Life as we know it this year is almost over because the end of summer is coming and the beginning of Football season starts.
As an avid (sometimes rabid) sports fan, I live my life not by the calendar seasons, but by the sports season. My year starts with Football season (Redskins and Seminoles). The next season is Basketball (Wizards and Terps), followed by Hockey and NASCAR (Capitals and #88) and ending my year with Baseball (Go Orioles. The Nationals still remind me of the Expos).
Now if you're a sports fan of any of these seasons you can feel my dedication just by looking at the teams I root for. No, I’m not a fair-weathered fan. I stick by my teams like family. Through thick and thin, for better or worse all that good stuff. So yes, my season is about to change and I can't wait for it to start.
The end is near! "Are you ready for some football!!!"
As a celebration to the beginning of "My Year" I want to share something with you. It does involve a little bit of bragging. I have an amazing life, with a lot of great opportunities. There isn't much I can really complain about. One thing stands out for sure an that's the fact that I have an amazing woman who cares for me like no other. Usually, on occasions like birthdays and Christmas, and the gifts I get are great. This time she has really outdone herself. How many guys can say, "My girl designed my man-cave and it's the best ever?" She actually built me a bar for my man cave. Then took it upon herself to design it. Here are the Pictures:
That's my SI wall. Has the first sports illustrated featuring the Redskins from 1966. Each one is framed and in mint condition from their original production (No Reprints)
View from the steps. Yes the built that bar one 2x4 at a time. Hand painted the lettering and everything.

These are my fish tanks. I've never been a furry animal person. We do have a dog and a cat, but those are more for her and the kids. I like my fish tanks. She designed them with Redskins backgrounds and Burgundy and Gold gravel.
The Bar:
Accessories for the bar. She Painted the side tables and the Fridge.
