What I'm interested in is the reason why you left your formal education behind you when you didn't have to (or something similar to that). Of course, answers like "Because I graduated from college/university", "I got out of cash", "I got pregnant" and similar answers don't really count.
As for me, 12 years ago I applied on Faculty of Mathematics for Computer Science, since I wanted to be a software developer from childhood. When I was 4 exams away from getting a Bachelor's Degree, a small (at the time) business opportunity presented itself and I took a bite. After few months of working from home for a company on a different continent from mine, I realized that it's either to continue working or leave work for a short while until I get my degree.
Since I never really liked "the learning package" university had to offer to students at the time, and the Internet was my #1 school when it comes to computer science (still is), I was never truly motivated to study in a traditional manner. So, with only 4 exams away from getting that degree, I dropped out and never looked back.
Since then, I've been working as a web developer and I enjoy every day of it. I've been in the IT industry for quite some time now, with relevant work experience and High School Diploma in Mechanical Engineering. For now, no regrets.
What's your story?
