I'm a self-employeed college drop-out who makes more than twice the income the average college graduate does.
When I was 17, I already spoke Spanish, English, and French, but my dad forced to major in engineering. But I spent my two college years studying Japanese on my own, and taking Greek and Hebrew credits at night on a Bible College. I finally flunked out on my junior year. I started working doing medical translation work thanks to my Greek. I started teaching Spanish as a second language to American, Japanese, and French people. I taught myself a bit of Latin, and started offering my services for legal translation to lawyers. I teach mostly Spanish now, but I'm so full of translation work.
I'm 26, before I turn 30: I want to learn Mandarin Chinese and be prepared for the demand in a few years, I want to learn Aztec to feel closer to my Mexican heritage, and to better up my Hebrew, and teach it for free on Sundays.
Should I learn Chinese and Aztec, or finish college?
