Drop out of school and become self educated.
I'm serious.
With the resources available to our generation; you can learn anything you would ever need.
Start a business, decide what you want to do with it. Want to wake up in Cabo San Lucas while still getting paid every day? Make your business autonomous.
Pursue your dreams. Focus every day to work toward the dream you want for your life. Even if it doesn't work out; at least you tried to live your dreams. Most people spend their live's waking up and clocking in to work for people like us.
I don't care who you are, what you know, or where you are from. You can make anything a reality.
Go crush today, reader. Spend every minute you have available building your future. Time is more precious than money. Spend it as wisely as possible. Learn as much as you can, and take as much action as physically possible. |

Legit learned more in my time of being out of school that can actually be used irl than I did in school.
Thanks to that I learned craptons in software and hardware used within computers meanwhile if I were to stay I would be barraged with pointless crap that would've just went unused because it's not going to be used anyway.

| This is the first resort, not the last resort. College and a career should be your fallback plan, not your main objective. |

you are probably awkward and antisocial
the worst thing you could do is have no friends, period |

I'd say I'm decently social. My friend's aren't normal people though. I've been very selective in who I allow to influence me.
Most of my friend base are engineers, designers, and stock brokers. We are all very young, and I've been lucky to be around people who apply themselves so early in life. |

this is really dumb tbh all careers need to be taught in college, yeah you take a few dumb classes that have nothing to do with your major, yeah it's expensive, but it pays off in the end, the idea of you "teaching yourself" is really dumb nothing is as simple as going on youtube and typing "how 2 be a [insert career here] out of high school HEH" the reality is most people who don't go to college usually earn less than a college graduate, and the few that find a way to start a business usually fail.

The thing is; no one reads. At all. I have yet to meet someone who reads meaningful books. |

my point is you can't earn the equivalent of a 4 year major in college by reading a couple books

Then make it your FALL BACK PLAN
why waste 4 years on learning skills to get a job, when you can learn those exact same skills in less than a year and never have to work for someone? |

"why waste 4 years on learning skills to get a job, when you can learn those exact same skills in less than a year and never have to work for someone?" University is so much more than that and if you can't understand that then I can't even begin to explain to you
