my career path (needs advice)
hey guys, i am 16 years old atm, and you may say its early to decide on my careers, but its not.
over 80% of teenage boys now days want to be a computer game designer or a programmer, because they think they are fun and stuff (lack of real experience)
and normally at my age (grade 10) they will start to teach basic programming (turing) in school, and that will be the first time 95% of those 80% of boys doing some real programming, but once they get to university or at starting to find a job, they will get PWNED by people like me who started programming at like 12.
MY STORY:
I am a very experienced website maker (Mostly HTML 4.01), CSS(I bet almost every one here know this), JS.
I started with making a forum for my own clan at age of 12, at 14, i starts to making ecommerce sites for couple hundred bucks each to adults who are like 20 or 30 years older than me, but i quit that because too many page to manage...
any ways, i want to be a professional programmer or web designer , and i know there are professional programmer and web designers here (mopar probably have more, but then i'd be a noob there), what kinds of options do i have?
If i want to be professional programmer, what language should i learn? what side languages? What steps should i go through?
If i want to be professional web designer, what should i improve on? what else should i learn?
please help guys/sirs !
