I’ll say this for you and others thinking the same thing; go to college kid. Do not skip college. You will have many more opportunities if you can get that paper. Part of this is because of the increased number of people going to college each year, and the level of competitiveness increase yearly. You not having a degree will weigh as a huge disadvantage. Alternative if you don’t get that paper, you need some accreditation such as maybe you can substitute with boot camp. But either way you need to have some form of ‘education.’ Unless you have really good discipline and are intelligent to actually self learn the field.
