I studied computer science for three years at uni and I dropped out Alhamdulillah. I was making good money. I used to code Python, JavaScript. It's crazy because that was back in 2021. In November 2021, ChatGPT came out and I was in uni back then. Back then, you know what ChatGPT could do that was so trash. It could take a line of text and turn it into a line of code. That's amazing in the future. That was just three years ago. I realized everything I learned so far in the past years of unique just became pointless because a remote prompt could just do exactly what I did. Better than me. And I have to admit it, all the other guys in my classroom are like, oh, look at this guy, he's gonna drop out. He's a dumb, He's a dummy. He's not gonna make money. He's afraid of AI. I'm not trying to be like, oh, I was a visionary or whatever. I just added two and two together and realized an AI that popped out three months ago can code better than me. I learned coding for the past three years. I had to admit it, it was hard. Imagine you spend three years learning something and out of nowhere it becomes useless. But I had to bite the bullet and say, I'm scared, have to drop out because I'm gonna carry on getting a degree that when I get a degree, it's gonna. The guys are still studying, they still don't have the degree. Look at what AI can do now. And then like a year from now, they're going to get in the job market to start getting experience in the job where AI is more experienced than you. So when I saw that, I was like, I'm getting out. I need to make my own money. I need to find a way to at least be worth something by myself with my knowledge and my skills, and build and learn the skills to be able to make my own money by myself. Because just like AI popped out of nowhere and made my degree worthless. So one day AI is gonna be make my job worthless, and I rather prevent it rather than have the consequences happen to my life and my family and all the other madness that could happen. So if you feel the same, I advise you, please, please, please don't buy no courses. I don't care. Don't buy my course. I don't care. Please just start doing something. Learn something. Learn a skill. Start something. Make money. Please take this advice. If right now it's in 2025 or 2026, whenever this video goes live and you still don't make your own money, you will regret in the future know that.
