Broke and stupid

Broke? Yes. Yes I was. My parents gave me $500 towards college because that's all they could afford. The rest was up to me.

Stupid? Nope. Just 17/18 and trying to figure out what to do with my life. I had no idea. I had around 60 schools sending me literature and I didn't know the difference between most of them. I was top 5 in my class of 343 and had a 32 on the ACT. I work in rocket engine development for a company you've all heard of. It worked out for me.

So, again, overblown.
