RE: MAJOR MILESTONE! My 1337th Post! And A Huge Update Concerning My Life And Future Plans.

Thanks for such an encouraging reply. I know I can always learn to code, but I have doubts about the income that this learning might bring to me .. probably not enough to support my family... but will certainly check those sources to familiarize myself with it. Or maybe I will get my son to learn coding, when he gets a little bit older. What's the earliest age you think that can learn coding? My son is almost 5 now. Maybe I should ask Stan when Dan started to learn coding... LOL

All the best and I will be following you and your project's progress. Cheers.

You're welcome! You can make very good money. You can even find a lot of companies that will hire you in as a "Junior Developer," that will kind of hold your hand along the way and allow you to learn as you're being paid a liveable wage.

DEFINITELY get your son into programming NOW! There's an awesome programming language specifically to teach to children to introduce them to the concepts of programming. If you can get him learning this now, you're going to have one powerful human being on your hands that has an insanely bright future ahead of them.

The language is called "Scratch," and you can learn more about it here: https://scratch.mit.edu/

Also, talking to Stand and Dan about this would probably be an absolutely brilliant idea. You can catch Dan everyday in the EOS chat on Telegram and Slack. If you need directions to those, let me know and I'll get you in the right place.

Thank you so much, and the best of luck to you as well!!!
