I used to skip homework in high school because it was boring and cut into my personal life outside of school (including my job) but I would always do very well on tests.

Then I stopped caring about tests too.

I did the same thing through college. The only reason they passed me and I got a degree is that I built the school’s website and I built personal ecommerce sites for the head of art and his wife to sell their paintings.

I haven’t done shit since like 7th grade.

Worked at Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, same behavior there - did basically nothing for them while making thousands off my games on App Store.
