Sorry. That’s not the answer any employer is looking for.

Welcome to the real world son. You either know your sh*t or you don’t! I also happen to know you have horrible communication skills (Zucas’s podcast). Dude, for your own good, wake up. Don’t take this the wrong way. I think you’re very intelligent and yes, anybody can learn anything they want so long as they put their mind to it. Can I suggest you work on your communication skills and presentation before entering the business world? Take a speech class in school or something.

I am your employer and that’s not the answer I’m looking for.

Yeah I’d like french fries and a coke with that. Oh could you super size it for me? Thanks

I’d surely go after doing what my dad did before me in the Military. While he was in the Air Force and worked at the Pentagon, I’d rather prefer a career in regular Army.....Maybe Marines, if I got the chance.....

I’m in Berkeley school of Optometry right now. In college I was going to be a Respiratory Therapist, then a Physical Therapist, then a Medical Doctor, but I decided to stick with Optometry because its a simple career, getting into optometry school isn’t difficult, and it pays on average 150,000$ a year. I took student loans all through college and now I’m taking more for optometry school. Once I’m a working optometrist I’ll be able to pay them all off in time.
But if you want flexibility in your career choice I would recommend a bachelors in chemistry (Its a really tough subject and you need to be good in math).

School is not the true answer to life. That is why people go through midlife crisis, they thought school and getting jobs that pay well were everything. I can be as rich as I want and still have a fucked up life and you can be successful without school. Writing a book does not require school nor does it require an employer and Bush got in office and he was a C student.
From what you are saying it seems you don’t mind working for people your whole life while with it me it is different. I aim to be working for myself and no one else. School teaches you how to be a good work for someone. Independence must be found on your own.
Do remember I am not going to get hired by anyone because I’ll be writing on books on my own and with that school is no help whatsoever so rejection as you call it won’t be happening by your employer to me and understanding and knowing everything are 2 different things. You lack knowledge in English it seems.
That is the real world. What you claim is the real world is just a fantasy.
School will force you to stimulate your mind and thus develope its potentail. If someone is serious about college it will submerse thier mind in so many different types of mental stimulants that it develops their mind until they think with far more depth than before.
You say you want to write. As odd as it may seem, even a strong education in math can make you write better. Math will teach your brain you how to pick things apart, how to find what makes sense and filter what doesn’t, biologically this develops neurons in your brain, which will ultimately help you think with more depth as you write. It might sound stupid to you, but that’s how the brain works; like weight lifting with your legs and you soon discover you can run faster.
And I seriously doubt you are in a library every day teaching yourself mathematics in order to develop your thinking powers. That would take a tremendous amount of will power. But in school you are forced to develop your mind if you want to achieve good grades, plus you walk away with a degree too
School is not just for those who want to work for someone else; that is ridiculous. Go out into the real world and look at all the successful entrepreneurs who work for themselves, I guarantee you the vast majority of them have at least college degrees. Many of them need the degrees so they can do whatever it is they do. Many of them wouldn’t be successful doing what they do without having a degree they can flash around.
Most the good authors have some college experience as well. A publisher will be interested in your life’s experiences, as will as a reader. If I was reading a highschool graduates book, I, as a reader, would be naturally far more critical towards its flukes. If it was written by some “graduate of advanced arts”, I would take the flukes as being intentional on the authors part, I would assume they are a master of the craft, I will give them more credibility because they are a “graduate of advanced arts." That’s how people think. That’s how your readers will think. It’s sad, but it is true. You will probably deny it, but it is true.

Wrong. Publishers don’t give a damn about your background. All they care about is if the book has any potential to make money. They have so many books that come in that they don’t give a shit about your life and what you did in school. All they want is the 1st 3 chapters and they decide from there. Sad but true. You better know how things work before you give people a speech on something they know a lot about.
Nope, schools teach you to work for people.
The rest you learn on your own, outside, and from other people. Yes, school is important and makes things way easier for some people and their careers but it isn’t needed even though it does make it much easier on most people.
A school can only teach you facts and theories, not anything else.
For most people they won’t use math at Algebra II and above. Yep, most don’t use it or rarely do.
I don’t sit in a library learning about history and English. I sit in my room reading books, using the internet, tv, movies, and whatever else helps. I don’t need school to motivate me to do that.
Abe Lincoln learned on his own without school and what did he become? President.
Go out into the real world and notice how many people used their brains to get up top. Warren Buffet didn’t get rich because of school. It was because he learned how to handle money at an early age. School only makes things easier, especially for people with hopes of doing more school-related careers as in degrees being needed or are nothing but the average mind. It varies from person to person but school is no guarantee of success, only a tool to help get you there. Your brain is what you need.
