From the first two minutes of the film I can say that it did not describe me or my so far life. I was in my beginning twenties when I took part in a scheme (multi level marketing, investing money). It was half a criminal organization (in terms of legislation) and half a waking me up one. lol. I took part for quite some time. Though I had zero financial profit through it (people were too attached to their money, which I personally was not and was curious to take risks) I profited in life experience. Never since I got back into a normal (debt-focused) life style. I cannot identify with the movie characters shown, working as a slave from nine to five (even though I had those jobs for a while but stretching personal freedom and negotiations to the possible max). I know, people claim that you are a slave unless you free yourself from paying taxes and such.

I followed my passions until today. I neither obeyed authorities in my work altogether nor sold my time to the highest bidder. Though I would not claim that I am special or do have some outstanding talents. I don't. It's alright to not be a super genius, it's fine not having done something "remarkable". The question would be "for whom"? If I look at myself I can say that I did remarkable things, though they might be seen as stupidities for others.
I state that I never was a fully integrated member of society though it's also true that I never was a drop out or will become one, I guess. Being "mediocre" is nothing evil.

Nonetheless I agree that schooling can be a great waste of time and in many on my own cases it was.

This video hit me like a ton of bricks because the guy is spot on.. Drop out of society, create anew.

Are the bricks still there? What are your steps towards creating something valuable?
