Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones. I work for a good company and make good money working from home.
Moving up in IT is somewhat difficult now because the talent pool is saturated. With OP who doesn't have any experience/expertise in the field, he has to compete for an entry level position, work his ass off to move up. Not saying it can't be done at his age, but I'm not seeing the investment tradeoff for someone in his position.
He‘s a webdeveloper, getting into pentesting should be very easy for him.
But I agree somewhat regarding the investment tradeoff. Regardless if you work inhouse or even as a freelancer, you are completely dependent on your skillset. As a freelancer, all you can offer are service hours, you don‘t have sellable goods/scripts like programmers have… I don‘t think it will make you rich. But if you find something, you do with passion, you can live well of it
No it's not...trust me. It's one of the greatest misconceptions out there. Maybe saturated at the bottom but there are not a lot of good developers, especially not ones that understand how to design applications properly and allow for scaling as needed...
If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.
Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.
This will quickly drive all women away from you.
And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.
IT =/= Software
Fair but it's like that in any IT field for the most part. Lots of people who do it, not many that do it well.
