Should I become a software engineer?

[socialcel]

I’m currently 16, doing all types of online business and have seen a good amount of success, my best month was like $4700, not that crazy for uscels but quite good imo. Anyways, should I learn to code till I turn 18 and then get a job as a software engineer while doing the businesses on the side? I think my IQ is around 130 so I’m not that smart FYI, but can learn things easily tbh

Also as result of normie-ization, interviewers care more about bad nepotism (recommending low skilled friends because fitting muh company culture), credentials and masochistic leetcoding even tho it might not be related to job at all

CE opens better doors than CS, because it is easy to go from CE down to CS, but you can't jump from CS to CE
