If I were to get a online high school diploma, do you believe I can get into a good college?

I think it would be a ged so to speak as long as you can prove you have one wether its on line or off line you would beable to go on with college.

High school is a waste of time. If you think you need classes, take them at the community college.

Get a simple job and a cheap pad within walking distance. That is so you don't have to waste your money on transportation. Save half of everything you earn. Yes, half. To start, keep your savings in gold or silver coins which you do not store in anybody else's vault. (IOW hide them at home.) Spend your evenings studying investment books at the public library. When you are smart enough then you can make other investments. If you earn ten bux an hour and save half, in only ten years you will have A HUNDRED THOUSAND BUX not counting interest or capital gains or paper profits: only principle. There is no other plan that will give you a net worth above zero in only ten years. And there is no school that will teach you any such thing.

Does this plan work? Andrew Carnegie worked five years, saved his wages, and then put it all into a steel mill. You might have heard the name. His hobby was building concert halls and libraries.
