Steemit Commuity, I am a 14 year old trying to pay for my college tuition. This is my journey!

Awesome! Its very exciting to see the younger generation becoming more aware and interested in the many different opportunities that exist. I just turned 22 myself and can barely get friends and family to wrap their head around cryptocurrencies. Most people rather stay clueless. Coming from college myself, my guess is that you seem to really have a good head on your shoulders and may not need to go to college. You are already lightyears ahead of your peers and don't seem only invested in things that everyone else your age is concerned with. My advice is to just keep learning, keep reading most importantly, and don't let anyone discourage you. Become a self-educating learning machine, most things can be self-taught. College can really stun your growth if you're someone who doesn't need it. Its a great social experience, but more of a black hole for money. I know this isn't the type of reply you are expecting, but always keep in mind that with every decision, comes an opportunity cost. Keep killing the blogs btw!

Thanks for the response josh! I agree my famiy and friends dont understand it.. TBH i sorta like to keep it to myself because i think its cool I am like the only 15 year old that knows about this shit. My family really wants me to go to college so I might have no choice but I do agree with you. Thanks again josh!

No problem. Yea I also felt like I had no choice, but maybe things will be different as you get closer. Now, they offer amazing courses for really low prices on sites like Udemy too. Either way, I have no doubt you'll be successful. Best of luck!

indeed, I have a few projects next week with @steemdrive where I will be making 3 grand...
Glad I have such an amazing oppurtunity at such a young age.
