I built a web-hosting site when I was 17, but I did not go to college for computer science, instead I studied physics. Then I went into scientific research in graduate school.

Now in the early 30s I am finally starting a career in software development. I am still excited to learn new things all the time, and I really enjoy the process. Just wondering what will be different if I started a software job 8 years ago instead of now, moneywise or not...
