LOL here are some suggestions:

a) Learn how to play games like DotA, cash in on tournaments and earn some big bucks + fame & fortune! wub.gif
b) You might want to consider opening a cc after learning the ropes from your employer
c) Learn how game sponsors do their business, you might be able to gain contacts and hopefully secure a job from the bigger firms.
