That's quite a funny story. I was in my last year of high school. Things were going well, I think I was doing Amazon, fba. And this is when I was, like, starting to go into dropshipping as well. I was making cash, like I was making decent money, decent enough money, more than anyone in my year or in my school, you know, like, I actually had to keep a lot of it a secret, you know, I didn't want to share all the money that I didn't want to share the money that I was making, obviously, with my friends at school. But I remember it was the last year of school and I had exams coming up, so I went to the teacher that helps disabled and special needs kids in their final exams to earn more credits so they can pass high school. And I went to her and I sat down and I talked about all the things I'm doing and I just told her that, like, I don't want to do the exams. It's just going to take too much time away from me. I'm on this path right now. I asked her what I could do and she gave me two exams which would give me enough credits to pass the year without doing exams. Did those. One of them was to interview my mum about her career and another one was to build a cv. Was able to pass the year, not do my exams, so I didn't have to study. Everyone was studying for their final exams. I was just able to go on my laptop and just work, work, just work my businesses.
