Hey, Well to tell you the truth, I haven't really been trying in my studies recently, and I have finished year 12 with a low mark, but I don't really care. I honestly think that I prefer to have the computer over my education. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

This depends on your outlook on life - If you live to make money, then I guess the internet can be beneficial, but what counts as "successful"? To get and live life with your friends, or to be at home in front of a screen - I know, I sound like your dad, and I'm a terror for staying in - but like others here are saying, I use the internet for my education. We have to realise that we only really learn what we want to learn, whereas if we went to college, then generally we would learn a wider scope of knowledge, as it is taught to you - you don't have to look it up. Also, there is so much false information on the internet, that you can't always be sure on what you're trying to learn. I would stick with a normal education, using computers with it, and then seeing how life pans out - just be careful not to get stuck on it for too long! Dave

About making money using the computer, I think it should never be the priority. The thing is that people make it appear to be so simple to get a lot of money online. The fact is otherwise. Depending on some websites, in order to get even $1, you need to spend a few hours online. That's certainly not worth it because if you're unlucky, the website might just close down and all your collective efforts to get a few dollars would be wasted. It's better you spend time in school, getting proper education, and earn a fixed income when you graduate. Of course, you might do a bit of online money-making activities during your free time, but this should take the back seat, not a priority. Good luck :)
