So you'll be comfortable if only the NSA and CIA
can crack your password? Not me.
I have finished high school, but have not yet applied to college. I am currently working as a computer service technician, and for the most part, I am completely content with my job. Since I do not at the moment care to share my life/time with a significant other, I am financially fine and secure.
Right now I am studying for a number of certifications, including Cisco's CCNA and eventually CCSP, so I can go into the network security field.
There are tons of IT certifications available not only for the networking field, but also even for programming and system administration. My current plan is to get as far as possible on certifications alone. I have pondered getting an associate's degree from a technical school, since that would look better on a resume than no degree at all, and I wouldn't have to take general education classes. Plus, technical schools are generally cheap.

If they get through ONCE you've got a weakness to correct.

Of course teaching touch-typing is important! If no one learns to type decently, how do we expect to convert everyone to GNU/Linux?!?
I am also definitely an INTP.
