Redditors who cheated their way through high school and college, how is life like for you right now? Are you still up to your old habits? Do you regret what you've done?

Well my current job is basically using and getting information others don’t have and applying it to be successful. (No, it’s not insider trading) I’ve done this for as long I can remember.

I started after realizing I had mostly terrible teachers which used severely outdated books and learning methods. To be fair I REALLY struck it bad and statistically that has to be an anomaly. Regardless I realized this very earlier on and decided I wasn’t going to put in the effort if the school wasn’t prepared to do the same.

I’ve used all sort of methods to obtain info in my younger years. Some more unethical. Nowadays I’m legit but I do believe this is because i have 20+ years of experience in obtaining information that most people don’t have. I never met anyone my age with that much experience and am know one of the best in my field.

So for me it’s possible to imagine what my school, and later, my profession career would’ve been like if it didn’t went to a terrible school. But I do recommend people don’t cheat. I can guarantee and honestly say, without bragging, there’s less than 1% people I know who’d be able to pull this off.

Don’t cheat and finish school, kids.
