When my son first told me he wanted to be a video game designer, I urged him to choose another career choice. After months of trying to persuade him to be a doctor or a lawyer, I finally gave up. My son was adamant about being a game designer. After he did some research online and showed me how much a game designer salary actually is, I was speechless. Never in a million years would I ever think that a video game designer would make that kind of money! I agreed to let him go to school for video game design and he is doing great, Pretty soon, my son will have enough money to buy me a new house!
