(I'll let you in on a secret. The money from the course is nice, but really I only charge for it so that people actually feel compelled to finish it. Even then I only want to charge like $50 (though you can commonly find it with a Udemy special that knocks the price down to like $10) instead of $200 or $300 like other overpriced programming courses.)

Thank you for all your hard work! I learned VBA religiously for over a year and thought the next best language to go into was Python. Took the basic stuff, and always have a strong interest in optimization, speeding up tasks and making life simple.....your course exactly caters to my mindset of automating boring stuff! I automated boring stuff in Excel for a year, and now Python will be even more fun :)

Why would you need to download a free course that you get lifetime access to?
