I started school when I was 23, mainly due to pressure from my parents. I was working full time as a VoIP tech however my mom kept pressuring me to get my degree.
I'm 29 now, have worked full time until I was 26, and started my own web development firm at 27 (hired my first two full time employees in 2012).
I'm a few months away from being done with school, and I can honestly say it has been the most worthless investment in my life. Everything I have learned in my positions as a IT Admin to Dev has been on the job.
School has just been a lot of wasted time doing fill in the blank work that I could have spent learning things or bettering my business.
