PS: The $USER variable is tricky and the result is not equal for all
Linux distros, while $HOME doesn't come with this issue.

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ sudo echo $UID $USER $HOME ~
1000 rocketmouse /home/rocketmouse /home/rocketmouse
[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ sudo -i
[root@archlinux ~]# echo $UID $USER $HOME ~
0 root /root /root
[root@archlinux ~]# logout
[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ su
Password: 
[root@archlinux rocketmouse]# echo $UID $USER $HOME ~
0 rocketmouse /root /root
