I have enjoyed a few particularly inspirational posts by inspirational posters. It looks like I have to narrow it to the top 10, in no particular order, though, because of forum rules for only mentioning 10 people in a post:

Can I, Should I, become a programer?
Firstly you can definitely work from home, indeed many companies would prefer this especially if you set up as a contractor. To be honest it is FAR easier to get work as a company than it is to go through full time employer.
What about Math!? The truth is that unless you want to get into 3D Graphics, say game programming - or complex AI (which will involve data structures) or something that uses heavy math in, then you DO NOT need a high level of Math.

What upgrades would you get?

I can’t even tell you how many times a day I think “nope. Can’t talk about that. Well maybe… Nope. Can’t talk about that either.”
After I run through this, I usually have nothing to say.
