So, long story short...

While anonymous was high school

anonymous made the mistake of

thinking I needed an education in order to get a career

My Advice to You is

work smarter, not harder.

Here's the whole story

When I was attending high school, I was told by people who I respected that a college degree is a must when obtaining any career. None of the people I knew in college got careers relating to their degrees, nor made anything of themselves. Now looking back, I could have made an extra $175,000+ (after taxes) in the two years I was in college, not even counting the money I could have saved from college tuition. My advice to all is work smarter, gain work experience that is consistent to your career goals, and network to get where you want to go, at least in my chosen profession.
