I finished my two year stint last June. Since then I've worked on several different startup projects and have been teaching myself how to code. I've been working on a personal finance site for the past few months that's getting close to MVP status. I'm running out of money though, so I'm considering joining a hedge fund for a while and continuing to work on the site on the side. The new coding skills would definitely come in handy.



Your story was fascinating, thanks for sharing. If you ever want help with learning to code or looking over your projects, feel free to email me (I wouldn't charge).

It's tough learning how to code out of school, and we could use more business-oriented people who grok technical stuff.

Thanks for sharing, I had heard stories like this, but never knew it was that bad.


Thank you, that's very generous of you to offer.


I'm willing to help too. I learned coding outside of school as well and it's a bit different.
