How old are you?
I got out of software when I was 27, got back in when I was 30 and then out again at 34. I won't go back.
I drive around the world instead, writing about what I do, and teaching others how they can do it too.[1]
It's never too late. I met people in their 70s driving around Africa, having a great time!

- forgotmypw17 6y agoI started when I was 10, first paid job when I was 15 or 16, got out in my 30s. I still love coding, and do it every day, but I can't see myself doing it for money again. I urge you to put your skills to good use at your leisure and for your own pleasure, not as a job, but as an art. You can make the world a better place. Thank you for sharing your YouTube channel, I find it inspiring.
- grecy 6y agoThanks! I do still tinker and write code on things I find interesting or challenging. These days most of my efforts go into photography and writing (I've just finished my second novel). I find working on the "real" world a lot more satisfying than purely digital where not a lot is tangible. Good luck!
