Not really embarassing but in high school in Junior year my math teacher told everyone he didn't care whether we came to class or not, it was our education.
For the whole year I never showed up at class and ate three lunch time periods to see my girlfriend. I paid another guy to do all my homework for me.
I showed up for the last test we had, barely passed it. Most of it wasn't too bad even though I hadn't been there.
When I went to pick up my test and check out my grade he gave me a confused look, I just grabbed it and walked out. Passed the class with a B. I had paid Andrew West 5.00 a week for my homework. Was well worth it imo.
Footnote to that true story:
I never was into school, the girls were my interest. When I moved to my dads in another city I knew no one and the girls weren't all that hot. I actually did well in school and wish I had put more effort into it. I really enjoyed getting good grades. Oh and even though I got bad grades most of my school years and never went to college, I have a hot ass wife and am rich as hell.

I guess I am replying to those who didn't like my history.
I have a beautiful wife because because I chose to have one. That is what I wanted and what I got. She got a great guy and I got a great girl.
I am rich because me and the misses make a great income and I live on less than I make and have no debts. Not a credit card or car payment or any of that 90 days same as cash crap that others have.
I might not have put forth the effort in school but I am smart at business and can see the value or non value in things which others miss. I wasn't bragging, was just pointing out that even if you do bad in school it's what you do after that determines what lifestyle you lead.

No, you're advocating sloth. The world would be a better place without people like you in it. I'd rather see the migrant janitor making 100k a year because I KNOW that they work themselves into the ground for less than nothing, and are eager to do it again the next day.
How am I advocating sloth? I find it offensive you say the world is a better place without me in it. You don't know me or how hard I work. I look at money as apples on the ground. I am rich because I have collected as much as I could and can and I don't give my apples to anyone.
I could be like the rest and buy everything on interest and have a car payment the rest of my life and buy things with credit cards knowing I am spending more just to do that. I could finance my education then get upset about having to work to pay it back, I chose not to. The money I could earn I didn't need to go sit in a school for four years.
Kudos to those that do. My wife works fulltime and is finishing her last year of college which we paid for with cash. When she gets out our income will go up even more. If I and her stay on track our net worth should increase ten fold and could technically retire in 10 or 15 years when I am 45 with more money than I care to add up right now.
I chose to be rich and do the things that will make me rich. You can do what you want. It isn't about what you did in school or how hard you work, it is about working smart and doing what you have to do to get what you want.
How do you like them apples? No be nice as I have been nice to you.
