I think there are a lot of those stories? I know I can't call myself a Programmer yet? I can call myself a website builder though. I can spot errors in other people's Javascript, but I still would never call myself a Programmer.
And even though I can put up websites, I not that proud of it? 95% of the learning process was just following directions?
I have noticed there's a lot of successful people out there whom hang titles behind their names whom aren't very good at what they do, whether it's Programming, Business, or Whatever Expertise claimed?
I sometimes think the key to success is over inflating one's ability, and faking it? I personally know so many extremely wealthy Fakers. Programming is one field I couldn't imagine faking it? I guess my point is I know too many people who literally lied about their abilities, and in the end--Won big time!
I sometimes feel the way I was brought up(every Sunday going to church, and feeling very confused) was detrimental to my wallet?? Plus, as a kid, unless we really/really were great at something; we kept our accomplishments/skills to ourselfs. We never got the chance to brag. If we did(brag), someone would literally, usually verbally, smack us, and we never acted overconfident again? I honestly feel being modest, and not chasing the Dollar--held my generation(born 60's-70's) back? (What I saying, I still can't stomach people who over-inflate their abilities, nor go after money too aggressively--especially money from the poor/middle class! The thought of my filthy Looker sister is enough to get me to stop this post. She did some damage to her family over the almighty Dollar--really weaselly stuff. She's rich though?)
