That reminds me of an uncle of mine who flunked out of art school. He has been an artist his whole life and has never had to work a day in his life for "the man". He isn't famous or rich but he did well for himself.
I was told my life was "over" because I got a bad conduct discharge. I got hired by a top military contractor for Iraq even with that. I declined the offer as I had no intention of going, I just wanted to see if I could pull it off.
