I didn't have /.profile on my system. However when I looked at the SUPATH in SU I was led to exactly the information I needed.

I am very thankful for the info Jlliagre this solved my issue and I guarantee I won't forget it.

All the different ways to set variables seems convoluted, but I am catching on.
