Recent events have convinced me that monks are completely underrated. Behind the auspiciously austere persona lies a religious man of power who controls some serious bank. The previous post below hints at some of this power. I've listed a few steps below if you are considering the Monk path:
1. Be a guy. Nuns don't have much cred beyond ruler slapping and penguin habits. If you want to be a nun and have some pull, you will have to actually be super holy (See the Mother Teresa Model).
2. Become a monk. This may be harder than first blush. To be honest, I haven't done any research.
3. Found an abbey in the New England area. It would be good if you had the backing of some living Saint.
4. Become an Abbott.
5. Open a boarding school so that you may share your divine vision with the youngest of God's children. Charge $40,000 per year for such enlightenment.
6. Solicit endowments from wealthy parents and invest wisely.
7. Profit. Show community support by purchasing cool toys like wind turbines and solar houses.
