I even tried downloading and pirating newer versions of 3dsmax so I could study at home, my ISP knew I pirated things occasionally and would throttle my internet connection to 15kbs, so it would take like 3 months to download, my shitty computer probably wasn't powerful enough to run it, but I still tried. I tried using the keygen a hundred times, and the "cracked" program but it never successfully opened itself, I tried like 3 different cracks of 3dsmax, and none worked, who the fuck ever said pirating is easy? And if you're wondering why 3dsmax is free for students now, it's honestly probably because my teacher would personally email and harass and beg the developers to let students have the program for free, he was like a saint, he never got it completely for free but he did get a huge discount.

I even tried to be those 3 edgy kids friend and they rejected me, I died and sacrificed years of talent for some fucks who didn't give a single shit about me. I am honestly close to crying, this was one of the saddest things in my life.

So /3/, have any of you legitimately gotten a job through teaching yourself. I looked into going to university for it, but it basically costs $45,000 just to get my ass in gear and get me to do something I could easily do at home, but maybe that's the kind of motivation I need.

I'm thinking though, I've been practicing a lot lately. So why not just get off my ass and save $45,000 and loads of stress by teaching myself.
