I spent a lot of years in school just to concentrate my last few years on one particular area that interest me; flow assurance/ pipeline hydraulic engineer. I focused on the flow assurance/ pipeline hydraulic path for three years while deliverying news papers and valeting everyday. Long story short i finally got my dream job, got laid off after oil/gas prices went bear and spent the rest of my days diving into programming and photography. No incentives, but pure passion, it amazes me the amount of knowledge i have enriched my self with in these areas since the past few months such that now i can pick any camera and learn how to use or pick any programming language and understand its main core foundation. Today i am diving into understanding how the blockchain works, A.I, ML and learning new photoshop and shot tricks. I say that to say this : school could be a scam to a self taught human. Hope someone now before the future sees this and escape the rat race by building thy own world brick by brick using #selfTaughtPrinciples and self awareness. Peace and love.
