Nope, the headhunter firm of Joe Sullivan, Inc. came calling and offered
me
a VP position at a publicly traded company to run their broadcast
division.
Since I had gone to college because I was consulting and had lots of free
time, this was no loss as I didn't have need for a degree... what I
wanted
was to give some structure to my knowledge of business and finance (radio
management) and the social sciences such as psychology, sociology,
cultural
anthropology (radio programming, in other words) and math and statistics
(research and ratings)... which I achieved. It also allowed me to learn
business terminology in English, which I had little familiarity with.

Crap.. you grew up with English, you frickin', lying little retard!

I grew up in a multilingual home. My mother, who spent years in Europe,
spoke several languages, and my grandmother, daughter of the US ambassador
to Germany, spoke German to us so we would be exposed.

By age 13 or 14, I was listening mostly to Latin American radio and music,
and over the years had many years of French and 6 years of Latin. I was, in
fact, in a multicultural environment. At about age 6, I enjoyed flying a
Brazilian flag in front of the house because I had a vision of travelling
the Amazon.

BS us some more, Gleason!

Not all people are monocultural xenophobes.

You never explained what you did to have your mother throw you out of
the house. Where threatening violence upon some family member? Doing
drugs? Maybe it was cheating on those HS final exams and getting thrown
out of HS that was finally the last straw for your mom.
