Mag,

When I got married 25 years ago...is was a permenent "goodbye to party nights
and sunday movies"...nothing but hard work and bills to pay since then. You are
lucky..to have put a hold on these activities for just 6 months.

Is is not that REALLY hard to get the CISSP certification. However, it does
takes alot of time to prepare, read and understand. This requires alot of
dedication and stamina to juggle between the working and studying schedule.
It took me 3 months to prepare, not an easy task, endless nights of reading
after work, visitng the cccure.org website more than often for practice
exams and extensive brainstorming sessions with peers..:) Basically it is
temporary goodbye to party nights and sunday movies...:)

Cheers
Mag

"Then shoot for the Cissp cert" 

Maybe it's just your choice of words, but that just makes it sound easy. Are
you suggesting that a little bit of study, some reading of an exam crap and
a little IT savvy ness is enough to obtain a CISSP? 

What I'm trying to find is how hard is it REALLY to get a CISSP?

Security+ by sybex. If you have a goog handle on security. Just use the
exam cram 2 book. Then shoot for the CISSP cert.
