I am currently 22 and have been a UNIX Admin for several years now. I took a couple years off from school after I graduated high school. Now I'm working towards a degree in an unrelated field. I'm hoping this will help me out in two ways.
1. With any degree, I will be paid more. 2. I have to consider that I may burn out at some point and it couldn't hurt to have a degree in a low tech field to fall back on.
My experiences have told me that admins don't need a degree to get a job. But you will make more if you have a degree in something.
Also remember that if you do decide to go to college, you don't have to finish in 4 years. Most people don't. Perhaps you can find a part time admin job at whatever college you go to.

I've ran `fortune` about 2000 times in the last 20 minutes and I heven't seen any anti-war comments from OpenBSD.
One word of warning though: do not read this when you are tired. You will miss some really good information and have to re-read parts.

Damnit! I'm always tired. Guess I can't read the book at all.
