Anybody who is an autodidact in this day and age automatically have the upper hand even if they do little bit of it everyday. I think that little bit of 30 minutes learning something everyday eventually adds up into something huge. For example, I am getting my first web service running though without a payment processor. Eventually, I'll figure out billing. I learned how speculation works, how to short sell, and learn technical trading terms like resistances, supports, amongst other things through osmosis learning. I spent 6 dollars and learned how markets really work. Through debate attrition and conceding every single time that I was wrong, I learned tremendously about economics. I learned about the concept of open source, the hackerdom subculture, was an early adopter of Mozilla Firefox before I started programming. Now, I am an early adopter and experimenter with cryptocurrency, something that come right out of a Neal Stephenson novel. I don't know if it succeed, but it's going to be a crazy ride. I am experimenting with microtransaction business models via selling my own artworks. On top of it, do it copyfree. Of course, I am 19, a typical youngster hacker-wannabe.
