If you hate school and do not see the point in studying all that stuff you will never use in real life then why don’t you start to earn money now an prove you don’t need school.

What do you want to do?

Do you have a hobby you could monetize?

Think about putting up a website devoted to your topic.

Tell your friends and get them to tell their friends.

Use Face book, My Space, Twitter and any others your friends use, to tell the world about your web page.

Get an article in your school newsletter or the local newspaper. Use the angle ‘local kid earns heaps on the internet’ or ‘local entrepreneur is just 15 years old’.

Even if your parents insist on you going to school you could get them to enroll you in courses that are fun. You will need to know about the internet and web pages. You might want to a business course to find out all you need to know about working for yourself and earning heaps. Tax laws and bookkeeping could be useful.

How to Prepare For Online Education

December 20, 2019January 17, 2020 - by Myron Bailey

Sometimes, you can’t pursue higher education in the traditional manner. Thankfully, online education has matured to the point where it is a viable alternative. There are tried and tested methods and rules you must follow, just as in traditional on-campus education.

Early on, you need to figure out what subjects of interest can build the foundation for your future degree. It is important to remember that learning should be enjoyable.

Do Your Homework Ahead Of Time

Once you have decided in what field you would like to study, you should start looking for where to get an education, or a degree, in that field of study. The internet can help out a lot here. Look online for what’s available. Take detailed notes on each option and put them in a spreadsheet.

Compare and Contrast Your Options

This review should be thorough. You don’t want to rush through this. But you don’t want to take too long, either. Make your list of pros and cons for each school, and pick the best fit for you, your lifestyle, and your goals. Things to consider include cost, graduation requirements, time required for each class, how many classes are required, when they are scheduled, and reputation of the instructors or faculty. If possible, you should …
