@mmarco Yes! I wish I could go back and use my free time learning to code

 

[mmarco]

@bridgetf Ugh I feel that! I was working on cool stuff, but I still spent a lot of time fucking around and wish I learned how to code younger.

@mmarco Don't listen to the comments, they also do not want you to live your dreams lmao

Edit: I'm being sarcastic but also agreeing with you and I like this post and the newsletter is fine with me because you provided some kind of value in the post.

 

[mmarco]

@a1cityflowers Thank you!! Someone who understands haha.

Everyone will try to drag you down to their level.

You’re a real one.

@mmarco "Don't listen to your teachers, trust your gut." What a quote! Love it.

 

[mmarco]

@sadnopi Thank you!! Maybe I need a blog based on this. There’s a good clip of Sam Altman saying NOT to take advice because no one knows your exact situation. Could be a good one.

@mmarco What's ur redbubble shop?

 

[mmarco]

@panevino I shut mine down a while ago due to Redbubble's change in copyright rules (they're much stricter on music stuff than they used to be 8 years ago). Now I do content full-time.

@mmarco And today what are your earnings off the stickers?

 

[mmarco]

@mysz I now run a content business doing $25,000/month which incorporates the photoshop skills I acquired. I stopped adding new stickers so it’s negligible.

 

[mysz]

@mmarco my man, you should send this to the teacher who told you to put the laptop away.

 

[mmarco]

@mysz Now that’d be a funny story to write about
