What would I do without you guys?

Thank you for all of the helpful information, I feel all I can do now is keep learning and excel in coding so I can repay/contribute in the future and show especially women that coding is fabulous, there are a couple of reasons why I mention that... It keeps you interested and challenged and it's the future of economic freedom for many of us.
