One of the mind-benders about $RUNE: it will be one of the scarcest assets (highly needed) and it will be the most liquid asset (paired to everything)

I've never talked homeschooling. Why? I worked for years so people couldn't "tell" that I was homeschooled my whole life. With so many families taking education into their own hands, thought I'd break my silence - and share the good and the bad.
