RE: High Schooler Becomes Millionaire Thanks to Bitcoin!!!

in #news8 years ago (edited)

That's awesome. I think the crypto environment we are in today will allow people who missed out on the dot com book their second chance to become internet millionaires, and we're lucky to know about it and be a part of it.

That said, I'm glad I went to college. My degree has been pretty worthless except for teaching, and for jobs that just want you to have a degree in something. And, my aunt paid for college for me, so I didn't leave in debt. I just really enjoyed the experience. I lived on campus, a couple of friends from my high school went to the same college so I started out knowing at least two people, I made good friends I am still friends with today, and got involved in so many enriching extracurricular activities. It was a wonderful experience that taught me to be an adult taking care of myself in the real world, while still having a safety net if I needed one. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Oh, and I work from home as a freelance writer and novelist now. It has nothing to do with my degree or my graduate degree, but it's what I've said I wanted to do since high school. I'm following my dream and college wasn't necessary for that, but I still loved it.

Thank you for sharing that Steph! I agree with you, university help teach students the important lessons in life such as being independent and making family like friends which is priceless!

Absolutely. :)
