For Brandon Eley above: Brandon…as Scott Wainner’s Father, I can promise you, that Scott did not come from a WEALTHY FAMILY…Scott
is a total self-made man. Got his 1st computer at the young age of 6 and he was hooked! He developed 2 successful websites while he was in High School. You might also be interested to learn that Scott earned his pilot’s license in a Cessna aircraft at the age of 15…he’s just a very bright young man. But, I think the thing that makes my Son so successful is that he is very “grounded” and keeps his success in “perspective”. He is now 31 and has 4 very successful websites…along with a very successful book he
co-authored about “over-clocking computers”…can you tell his Father is very proud of his Son?! *smile*

This is very much impressive! It’s very surprising that those people behind the most successful names in I.T. are college dropouts back then.

With a bit of luck, some of these guys will become professors at a University of Real Life.

There is hope for non-conformists, it seems! My favourites amongst these are Matt Mullenweg (I really love WordPress and its success is only but a taste of things to come!) and Jawed Karim.

It’s worth noting that Hotmail.com co-founder Jack Smith didn’t just drop out of college, he flunked out. 12 years later he sold Hotmail to Microsoft for $400,000,000.
