  • Theoretically.

    You’re going to subsist off donations and side hustling. Which you don’t need a degree for so you’re shooting yourself in the foot by collecting debt.

    There are other smaller tech jobs that may or may not be better for you. I’m thinking dirt pay working at a not-for-profit. You’d be way over qualified and the smartest person in the room, so you’d have a different reason to hate your peers.

    What I’d look in to if I were you are smaller neiche software solutions that you could make yourself and sell as a subscription. They are out there. I wrote a customized solution to a warehouse once. It was stupid easy and I didn’t charge them much for the sub, so it wasn’t really profitable for me. But networking outside the tech industry could prove beneficial if this is your intended route. Maybe make friends with “the life of the party” and go into business together selling custom software solutions.



















  • I almost did this to myself. I actually set it up this way, but realized my mistake before logging out of anything so I just disabled it and set it up differently.

    I have multiple old phones that I’ve taken apart and removed the antennas, cameras, and mics from so they can’t connect to anything even if you wanted to. I store extra copies of my 2FA there, I committed to memory the password to my hard drive and password vaults, setup recovery codes, and printed out the information that was too important to lose. Saved the information in a file and encrypted it to two USB drives with passwords I know I know. And created copies of the password vault in several offline locations. Much better setup with idiot proof redundancy.
