I first saw a computer when I was 10, I wrote my first Visual Basic application almost a year later after I bought my first programming book "Visual Basic for Dummies". Programming became a hobby for me when I was a kid and once I understand that I could do that for a living, that was my epiphany. I devoted my life to being a highly paid professional by doing my hobby.
I was super bored in college mostly because I knew lots of the stuff. Not everything of course but I was quite ignorant believing that I did.
I don't think that I was bord a developer neither that I am ahead of my colleagues. I do though have the advantage mainly because I don't feel like working and I enjoy spending time outside my 9-5 to learn new things and advance my self.
