@algekalipso agree but unfortunately math (like music and language) requires you to learn some concepts at a young age or you'll be effectively incapable of learning it without serious effort.

Collin's story is legit. How do I know? I worked for him. To make money I did automation work for Greenbox. Nothing sketchy about the business, it's just a storage company for college kids. Numbers aren't crazy -- it's just a regular business.
