My dad put a computer and the BASIC-A in front of me when I was 9 years old. Since then, I have been causing trouble with computers. In the time being, I also got an Electrical Engineering degree, an MBA, and a PhD in Economics. The whole background does not make as much money for me as it should, but I am hoping that there is something of interest in my presentation that you can take away (and reuse without needing permission).
