'06 PA WR/DB Elijah "Scoot" Fields (Pitt signee/bootee)

Pitt's Fields realizing potential
Friday, September 25, 2009
By Ray Fittipaldo, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Elijah Fields has been in coach Dave Wannstedt's doghouse so much during his four seasons at Pitt that it could be mistaken for his second residence.

A 6-foot-2, 225-pound redshirt junior safety, Fields never committed major indiscretions, only small mistakes that constantly irritated the coaching staff. He was late for meetings and did not demonstrate a strong willingness to accept coaching, all of which kept him from earning a larger role on the team.

Now, after a season-ending knee injury to starting free safety Andrew Taglianetti, Fields is being thrust into a full-time starting role for the first time, and there are signs that the once ballyhooed recruit who turned down Ohio State and Penn State to attend Pitt finally is ready to blossom as a player.

Vanguard | The Boring Way to Become a Millionaire

1. Live beneath your means.
It's not easy saving thousands of dollars a year, especially early in your career. Unless you're highly paid it will likely require doing without some things that others might view as necessities. You might drive the same car for 10 years, for example, or take camping vacations instead of flying to a sun-kissed beachfront resort.
Researchers have found that, contrary to their reputation as big spenders, most millionaires live well below their means. They are likely to drive an old car or pick-up, drink domestic beer, and never have paid $500 for a suit.*
