Dropped out of high school, makes over $100K, how feasible is this?
2 comments

I dropped out of high school and now make over $150K working as a developer. I mainly work as a contractor and I don't think i've once been asked if I finished high school.
With a GED? Completely. Without a GED? Much harder - not impossible, given some employers literally don't care and you can jump between those kinds of places, but it's more likely that you're making that money because you started your own company.
