Do You Have To Graduate From High School? (pg. 4)
View this Thread in Original format

Honestly man, you need to do some thinking.

Being content with a manager's job at McDonald's isn't aiming very high. That's not that much money. Plus, if you can't work hard enough to get out of HIGH SCHOOL, which every dumb with opposable digits can do, then how are you going to have the work ethic to become a DJ that makes enough to live off of? Just getting your foot in the door will be a huge task, let alone getting a residency at a club. You defenitely need to get your priorities straight.

give the kid a break he just said he is only doing it for a hobby.

being a manager at mcdonalds is not much maybe, but it's better than being a burger flipper at mcdonalds!

do whatever you gotta do to get money for your equipment, and later records. Personally, i busted my ass for 4 years in college so i could get a better job, now i make webpages and bring in about a grand every 2 weeks. it was enough to buy my decks and keep me in records, so, good enough for me!

keep workin at MCds shawn, and keep going to school. save up, and when you can afford it, buy some technics or some CDJs if that's the way you wanna go. just don't put all your eggs in one basket and quit school or work for DJing, that's just dumb.

I wish I made about 26 grand a year.
I'm still in high school anyway, I guess i make enough to support my hobby. Obviously I can't buy loads of records each week but I can get some. I also don't have to pay for living expenses which is also a plus. All disposable income!!! Make $$$ Make $$$:toocool:

people please dont call me a kid. btw, if i ever get into club djing, im gonna quit my manger job for sure. i try quitting but those guys there need me, which means its highly unlikely i will get fired. nd plus, tiesto used to be in small clubs, thas how he became big. i dont think it had nething to do wit skool, or maybe it did. but if i can make enough money to afford everything i need, then ill just stick wit that job. i hope u understand.

sorry, when you make so many spelling errors in your post, it's hard not to think of you as a kid. how old are you, just for curiosities sake?

You dont need highschool for anything, drop out and become a dj.
More time to practice, and less time in math. If you want to be really cool, do alot of crazy drugs, and start fights with cops. I heard that helps you become a very cool dj also.
(putting eggs in baskets is also fun)
(Capps lock 4 life)


why would i wanna get in fights wit cops, u must be crazy. i think u need some schooling for sure, maybe ull be more mature. and djing isnt about being cool, because if u just wanna be cool u wont make it. so just shut the f**k up or ill have to come there and break ur face.

If you are asking if you need to graduate high school to become a dj, you are already too dumb to become a dj.


how is that? when i dropped high school i never knew i wanted to be a dj. but later i thought of it, started learning and now im practicing hard. all i need now is some gigs, and in brampton noone doesnt listen to trance, unless its some tony monoco's tracks. i just need some gigs, thas all.

Lol why do you need school 4 .. i mean i stopped school because i didn't learned a thing.. yeah writing and mathmatics but the last years where so boring, i mean if you realy wanna learn something, i think you must do a world trip, for some months you see alot, you hear alot, you see different side's of every story because you are a outsider

And 4 the dj thing ... if you wanna be famous you only need to turn good and have a bit luck :D


well ive noticed that the north americans that are on this forum keep saying u need school, and the europeans dont really care. wats going on here??
