- Why I dropped out of college (and how I escaped the matrix)
Why I dropped out of college (and how I escaped the matrix)
The moment I decided to drop out of college was in my second year.
I was in this class that was totally irrelevant to what I wanted to do, but I needed the credits to graduate.
And there was a Powerpoint on the screen that told us to mime a weather system (I shit you not):
I thought, “Am I in kindergarten?”
I’m paying thousands of dollars a year for this (lol)?
We’re adults trying to prepare for a career, and we’re being treated like children with an IQ of a potato.
Unsurprisingly, the whole class turned out to be activist indoctrination.
We learned precisely 0 actionable skills.
It was all meant to program our minds on how we should judge certain political beliefs and why we should believe what the professors believed.
I wasn’t vibing with it.
That’s why, during that time, I started living more on Twitter than I was in school.
I had enough.
So I made the conscious decision “Okay, when this semester ends, I’m droppin’ out and going all in on this online business thing.”
Because what they were teaching in post-secondary was a joke, and I didn’t want to be a part of that.
And that turned out to be the best decision I ever made.
Now, I’m not going to lie and say it was easy.
I didn’t become a millionaire in 69 days.
But it was so much better than any future I could have imagined when I was being indoctrinated in the sheep factory of a liberal arts degree.
Because in just 3 short years, going all-in on online business took me from slinging pizza deliveries (and even working hellish 84-hour weeks as an electrician in the freezing Canadian winter)...
To making multiple 6-figures living and working from my laptop in places like Dubai, Panama, Colombia, and Spain.
So here’s why I’m telling you all of this:
This life is possible for you, too.
I know because I wasn’t alone in building a 6-figure creator business.
I’ve seen my own clients change their entire lives, too, sometimes in just a few short months.
Like Taylin (who went faster than most)...
Or Andrew, who’s been crushing it over the past few months (on his way to $50K/month):
Now, I’m not gonna make false promises and say this is gonna be you.
I have no idea what your work ethic is.
But what I can tell you is this:
What I’m releasing in Full Stack Creator are the tools I’ve given the people in the pics shown above.
It’s up to you if you use it to get ahead like others have.
Working for yourself from anywhere in the world with nothing but a laptop…
Signing deals for $1500, $4000, or even $7000+ per month…
And even having your own clients send you leads (just like Andrew above).
Now, don’t get me wrong.
I’m not telling you to drop out of college or quit your job.
Because only you can know what’s right for you.
I’m just showing you what’s possible.
But if you’re not happy with the path you’re on right now, and your heart is telling you to consider a better way…
Me and my 150+ successful students are living proof that there is a way out.
