Just joined after lurking off an on for a while. My name is Charlie, and am a proud producer in my chosen field as an I.T. Analyst. I discovered Ayn Rand and her books right about the same time I went back to school for my MBA in I.T. Management (2009), and her books helped me push through (I worked full time while studying, and was still able to finish my program in two years). What's funny is that when I "came out" as a "Randroid," I discovered that there are a few people in my family who already knew of Rand and had been deeply influenced by her work, including my Aunt who has owns her own business.
