Becoming fearless

[Shannon]

Regardless, Alec, until you at least graduate highschool, or whatever your local equivalent is where you are, you need to stick with school. A GED isn't as useful as a HS diploma, and a HS diploma is already expected. Unless you have a plan in place and you are successfully working it to replacing that path with something else, stick with school. It may be ridiculous what they expect you to do for a piece of paper, but that piece of paper really does mean something, even if it doesn't seem like it now.

You see college dropouts who go on to become millionaires, but high school or middle school dropouts? Not so much.
