    Still studying: Media Entertainment Management/working at Autoweek.tv(car magazine) and got my own website: http://www.motorsportmedia.nl/https:...orsportMediaNL

    Occupation: At Autoweek.tv: as a cameraman/video editor. Mostly technical reports and test reviews. Next to that Project manager of events. Too bad I was in a car accident lately and broke 4 of the 5 bones in my left foot.(run over by a Lamborghini)

    So it's editing video's and do some desk work for the new upcoming event.


    For MotorsportMedia.nl: It's not officially registered as a company because I don't make a profit out of it and I don't want to get it into a company. It's more like a portfolio and something what creats experience.(wich helped me well by getting the job at Autoweek.tv)

    Yearly income: not much yet but good enough to pay the bills.

    Degree/Major/Special Certifications: Level II ITC Thermographer. No college degree/ diploma.

    Occupation: Thermal Imaging Consultant. Director of three companies all within the renewable energy sector. Due to recession here in Ireland though I've basically been on site installing systems myself and making sure everything is done right at the groundlevel which sucks. Hopefully going to be back on track and growing in the New Year Here's the main companies website if anyone's interested though. Geothermal-Solar

    Yearly Income: Unfortunately due to being a company director I always seem to be the last one to get anything at the moment and times are bad here in Ireland. Also though when things are a little better it will be better but currently on C.€25,000 but hopefully going to be a good deal more next year!

    Degree/Major/Special Certifications: Will have an Associate In Science in a month but that has nothing to do with where I am right now. School hasn't done shit for me. Security+ Certification.

    Occupation: Currently a Systems Admin, started doing help desk/call center/computer type shit at 18. (90% of the time I'm sitting here bored. It's a good career if you like FB and interwebs).

    Yearly Income: ~55k + benefits n shit

    Feels good to succeed without a degree. Of course I will be going to a Bachelor's but it's nice to know I can make it without one.
