then he's a dope...

So here is my challenge to you... You have to get out and talk to people who own businesses. See if you can go to networking functions. Let them know you're a SW developer, ENTRY LEVEL... you're looking for work in your field.

Call Real Estate agents (they make deals, so they'll be open to it) trade a new website (nothing too fancy) for a referral and a using their site a part of your portfolio...

If you don't any experience make some... UberX is hiring... code, drive, code... I'd love to take advantage of you and hire you for a project I'm doing... but it won't get you to your $5K goal... (i'm really cheap)

well yeah I want to get to the eventual goal of work. But the thing is everyone wants to see the Bachelors as a kind of first line test. so I do want to work but at some point I do want to finish, I mean I already got this close to the finishing line. at this point its getting enough to go back for about a year of school. but some of it would be repeating courses. so its not exactly the most ideal thing to do, but it's where I am. let me know your email and I'll shoot you a message.
