E137 | No Degree Required : $60,000 to $185,000+ as a Security Analyst–Wib Gridley’s Story
His dad wasn’t in the picture. Wib Gridley’s mom was a single parent that sometimes worked three jobs simultaneously just to take care of her kids. By the time he was 16, his friends were stealing cars and getting in trouble. He realized if he went down the same path he’d either be dead or his life would be a wreak. So, he decided to drop out of high school. But he had a plan. He joined the military.
Listen in as Willtells Jonaed about how he:
* Dropped out of the 10th grade and got his GED.
* Joined the military at 16.
* Worked for the company that created the Tomb Raider game
* Became a Cyber Security Analyst
* Published papers at universities
