Buy Bitcoin then buy as much NXT as possible at ICO price

I would be a fucking multi millionaire

But I guess that would somehow fuck the timeline and NXT would fail for some reason

Send and email to Hal Finney and say that you're super interested in his new Bitcoin project and you'd like to get started. He'll send you twenty thousand bitcoin or so just to get started if you convincingly act like you care about his nerd project.

Then that's it. Print out the private key and put it in a safe deposit box. Nothing else you do matters from now on because all your efforts will be dwarfed by the millions upon millions of dollars you now have access to.

Real talk, maybe don't drop out. Engineering will be saturated as fuck in 10 years. Pick up an accounting degree and cruse the CPA life.

also since you're only entering Uni, then the first thing you need to do is get internships
right
fucking
now
your everything is worthless without internships
ALL of it. You need internships from YEAR ONE, because year two internships require 1 year of experience, and so on and so forth. When you actually look for internships during your 3rd year like most, you're fucked kiddo
get internships NOW
if you aren't continuing education then just enter the army

By the time accounting can be done with 100% AI, at least half of the jobs on this planet will not be done by humans - there will be bigger problems. That's not my end-game anyway.

To make accounting AI compatible, you'd need to modify the source information so that AI can understand it. I don't expect you to know this, but there is not any 2 companies out there that give you numbers with the same format, same interpretation of accounting agreement or same level of competency with respect to the skill level of whoever they call their "accountant". There is considerable investment to be done on the side of individual companies - not just audit firms - to make AI Accounting a thing. Also, there's a lot more to auditing than number crunching. There's a considerable amount of communication between the company and the auditors.

My realistic advice would be dont worry what your dropkick fucking peers are doing. They will be in the same possition 10 years down the track. I dummed myself down alot because i wanted to fit in with my peers. (Including family). I was a proper fuck boy and got hammered and had sex with many women. I was a god in the eyes of my friends. I am now 27 and dont assosiate with anyone i used to want to impress anymore because they are all on meth and dont have jobs. I now own a house and am re studying my school education. i could have been in this position a lot earlier without them

I also grew up in a poor family in a poor area so there wasnt alot of friend options. I was constantly the only one of my friends with a job and a car and that liked to do other things to get ahead. I should have clicked on much earlier
