My grandfather gave me my first computer when I was a kid at 7. Since then those boxes had something like a magic aura for me and the more I learned about it the more I was curious about how stuff worked. Ffwd 17 years later and I'm a self-taught full-Stack Web-Developer. I'm wondering where I would have landed if I didn't had a computer back then, maybe in retail, I dont know.

Interesting how one feedback loop can guide you through your whole life
