    I wouldn't stop completely but maybe take 2 classes and start business. That way you cover both outcomes. Then you need to decide custom work only or try to manufacture some things for a more expanded business model.

    Yup. I have a couple of buddies that can command pretty solid incomes and go mostly where they want. Definitely an artwork to what they do.
    @3378jakesr5 from experience I would not drop school altogether, maybe go part time at a minimum. I found I didn't need it in my younger years working in IT and dropped out, but later found I was limited to where I could go if I wanted to expand my horizons. There would be tons of jobs with larger companies paying well, but a lot of doors were closed due to that "piece of paper". My skillset far surpassed most with their degrees, but that didn't matter to a lot of companies.
    I did go back and finish a few years back though, but it was freakin exhausting at a later age.

    my two pennies

    For what it's worth, I stopped about a semesters worth of credits short of graduating in order to take a job in a really attractive industry. It's not like I regret it, per se, but yes, it would've been nice to officially finish and have that piece of paper. especially if things didn't happen like they have and i've gotten lucky and been fortunate enough to know a lot of the right people. Had i not, it'd be nice to have that fallback

    question for the geeks on here...
    That little spy cam...
    It records video and pics.
    The first few times i uploaded to Youtube, it worked just fine. You have seen the vid on the RC car.
    But now, the video loads patchy and the sound is distorted, but only when uploaded to Youtube. It will load, but static for sound and the video is patchy.
    Watching the vids on the PC is just fine, copying the vids from camera to PC or USB storage, works just fine.:notsure:
    What would be causing the issues when trying to send to youtube?
    I have tried 5 different video uploads, no change.
    Tried resetting and formatting the camera, no change. Works everywhere but youtube.

    I agree with you guys in some aspects
    Jack could probably make a decent living, but he has come this far and IMO shouldn't quit school get that piece of paper with that and his experience he'll go far in life..
    Plus Jack isn't a quitter :D
