Re: Ask a highschool dropout
OK OP,
I am a high-school drop-out myself although I am now 32 years old. I didn't drop out by choice. My parents were drug addicts. (my dad who i lived with needed my extra cash and my mother was living in the streets somewhere in Brooklyn). I was working full-time since 16 yrs old. I worked hard and landed a job on the COMEX exchange, it was low pay but, it paid the rent. I moved out on my own at 17 years old. I got hired by an independent trading company. I stayed there for seven years and then was hired by a bigger company that I work at now. Bottom line is.. if you do not HAVE TO drop-out then DONT. School is a privledge, I have two children of my own now and I do not want them to have to struggle on their own like I did. I will strive to make sure my children get their proper education and can make educated decisions. OP, if this is a true post and not leveling.. you are very foolish and I hope you go busto early so that you don't get too dis-illusioned. EDIT: I forgot that this is BBV4L and my correct response is... I PUT ON MY ROBE AND WIZARD HAT. |

Re: Ask a highschool dropout
OP: Please stop watching Rounders
Actually, I would say this is probably your best shot to make anything of yourself. You don't seem to have the ability to do anything else. I knew everything too, when I was 18. Sincerely, The guy who is in his 5th year of college and still doesn't have a degree. |

Re: Ask a highschool dropout
Take the $3k and buy lotto tickets.. you got a better shot at making it big this way.
Stay at home and live with parents.. get a job in construction or some other physical job. make $22/h. I would bet a dollar you are WAY better with your hands than you are with doing math in your head. |

Poker is all about reading your opponents. |
