They told you not to Renew. No, I got multiple e-mails from club officers and long term members asking me to continue. |

As stated before, I quit because I started a business instead. School was so boring that it was easier to read the text books the first week of school, and then skip classes and only take the tests. |

You flunked out of school and then did the only natural thing: you went to work. If you'd really been a good student, other, poor students and even poor teachers could not have held you back. Your own inherent curiosity and intellectual vigor would have propelled you forward. Instead, you failed and went to work. And that is fine. You have no reason to feel ashamed; but your incessant breastbeating and your relentless search for approval betrays a deep sense of shame. |

Instead, you failed and went to work. The fact is that I had tired of school, and was much more interested in business and radio. What would you say was more of an acheivement at age 18: a piece of paper proving you graduated or owning the #1 station in a city of nearly 1 million population against 41 competitors? And that is fine. You have no reason to feel ashamed; but your incessant breastbeating and your relentless search for approval betrays a deep sense of shame. I'm proud of the fact that I was smart enough to know that continuing in school would be frustrating and, probably, damaging. I slipped the noose and did some rather significant things. |

Yeah, making stuff up is good if one is in the movie biz! No, building the first Top 40 station in South America is significant, as well as building the first FM in the Bolivarian nations is, also. Both, by the way, before I was 20. What were you doing then? |

Again, the paper is not the achievement. Had you succeeded, you would understand that. And that is fine.

I'm proud of the fact that I was smart enough to know that continuing in school would be frustrating and, probably, damaging. I slipped the noose and did some rather significant things. It would not have been frustrating had you been a better student. But you failed and went work. No one could ask any more of you. |
