You don't have to be the smartest in the room. Just be the one who refuses to quit.
Small progress every day will always beat excuses. Stay consistent. Your future self is watching.
If your family makes under $100k, you get great aid. If youโre ultra-rich, you pay cash. But if youโre a dual-income middle-class family making $150kโ$250k, they squeeze you based on home equity and assets. They make PR announcements about "free tuition" while keeping the threshold just low enough that average families still have to take on six figures of debt.
I work in a weed store, and I had a guy in today who was prompting A.I. to try and figure out what weed to buy and when I told him we didnโt have what he was looking for in stock, instead of asking for suggestions from the 3 humans in front of him he just continues to prompt A.Iโฆ.how cooked are we as a society if weโre asking robots that canโt smoke weed what weed we should be smoking???
