Xavion-
I had much the same fate as you from an education standpoint. I left High School and got my GED. I have some college but have yet to complete my degree. However, I was blessed with an affinity for comptuers and technology. During and immediately after HS, I was working in computer retail. Not ideal, but it was a start. I got a job later for EDS as a systems administrator, and just kept grinding my way up. Now I'm 28 and work at a local IT firm where my 'title' is 'Manager of Security Services' where I'm responsible for client security audits and also for R&D on our security products. I'd love to go back to school and get a degree, but it's hard to find the time.
