Pursuing a career in the Computer Science field?
I’m a fifteen year old student in high school and am currently enrolled in an Advanced-Placement Computer Science course in school without taking the prerequisite (it was supposed to be required, but I tested through it). I currently maintain a steady A+ and I’m looking into majoring in Computer Science. I’ve written apps for the Apple iPhone as well as developed a bit for Microsoft’s ‘Sync’ powered cars. I also take some online courses at Stanford just to jog my memory every once in awhile. My main question is this: Is it going to benefit me (monetarily mainly) to get a degree in Computer Science and pursue a career? As of now my parents are financially very stable, but it’s nothing for me to lean on with regards to my life as an adult. Thank you for any/ all responses.
I’m only 14 years old, have developed PS3 games single-handedly, ported the Linux kernel to 1970s-era Chip-8 system as well as the Kaypro and MSX (which was really pretty easy, a retarded baby could do it), have a 101% average in all my classes at Harvard and KAIST (an elite technology institute in Daegu, South Korea), and I have an 18-year-old girlfriend who is a Victoria’s Secret model! I speak fluent Arabic, Chinese, Korean, and Swahili, and generally only sleep 3 – 4 hours per night (you can sleep when you’re dead).
Not only that, I have been predicted by Time Magazine to be the most likely to win the DARPA Grand Challenge, and recently wrote a theorem which was published in a major scientific journal that conclusively disproves the existence of any god, enables cold fusion, and even shows the feasibility for a perpetual motion machine! I also hacked the IRS, but never got caught!
I am also 6’6″ and play varsity basketball. When I have a free moment, I enjoy long walks on the beach, memorizing pi (I’m currently at 50,000 digits), and I have a part-time job as a master sushi chef at a five-star Japanese restaurant in New York. Oops! I forgot on the list above that I speak fluent Japanese, as well. Boku wa atama ga ii da yo! Boku no IQ wa seikai de ichiban takai da yo!
I am also very muscular because I work out 50 hours a week. I am so muscular, I ask people to fire guns into my muscles so that I can absorb the bullets as iron. I also enjoy doing fire poi shows in front of large crowds. When someone asks me to do a show, I simply refuse any offer under $300 an hour, however.
And I can fly.
