…and Patrick told me this morning that he would like to be one! Ok, well, I suppose he already is one! But what I mean is - he said he’d actually like to be a game designer! He saw a commercial for a college, I’m assuming like Collins College, where you can go and get a degree in game design and he was really excited about it. That would be so awesome!

We were in the car talking and I was telling him (like I have before) about how he really needs to start learning HTML and maybe get a website up and get an online business going. There are just so many kids doing that these days - and they literally amaze me!

What brought this up, again, was that yesterday I was reading an article about Ashley, known affectionately by her legions of fans, as Ashbo. She owns and operates the site, WhateverLife.com. She started out just making layouts for MySpace, and that is still a big bulk of what she does, although, she has very smartly added other tools to her business arsenal. I have been watching this girl for some time now, and I am in complete awe of her.

But the thing is, she is not the only one. There are plenty, and I do mean plenty, of teens and young twenties, making a living online - some of them actually in the millions! What an amazing and exciting time we are living in!

And I would love for all of my kids to get a leg up, and start learning some of this stuff now, before they even go off to college! And it looks like at Collins College, you can even start some of their courses while you are still a senior in high school! That is so cool, I know that my nephew is doing that through one of the local colleges, and I would love for my kids to do it, too!
