Who feels like they got the most out of their particular level of educational attainment? With years of hindsight now, I believe I could have made a lot more of my educational career — delving in to things that really interested me rather than simply completing homework assignments and beating the curve on tests. The amount of available time you have as a full-time student is massively underappreciated.

Subjects like project management, requirements gathering, and other sorts of non-coding topics are extremely handy to have experience and education with, but not "sexy" enough for (most) people to really learn about them in their free time.

Now I have more disposable cash and not enough time. This is why iTunes Store makes money even though cheaper alternatives are around. I could spend the time and download it from some website or I could spend 2 minutes and get it from Apple.
