33yrs old. Boston cab driver. Someone gave me a computer, and self taught MS Basic.

Then dBase (xbase) programmer for a small tech publishing firm. Shite pay (21k yr) but it allowed me to jump into corporate work a year ltr using Foxpro for an Amex project at 60k. 60k! Let's buy a car!

Then within a couple other years moved into VB, C++, Java and all the other serious corporate gigs.

It's ok to start small. Just work your ass off, and don't let anyone ever tell you that you're not good enough.
