Tony. I read your post this morning. Wow, are you ahead for your age. I am so impressed. You have amazing writing skills for someone so long.
As far as not fitting in, I totally understand. I too was a grown up adult teen and I hated being stuck with kids in school who were half as mature as me. When I was in high school I was working full time, leasing a car, and saving for my first house. I bought my first house at 18. Going out and partying was not my thing. I felt 26, 27 instead of 16.
I can tell you that things do get better and that one day you will feel like you fit in. And remember, it is ok to be young and have fun. You don't want to regret not enjoying your youth later on. Believe me, there are times I look back and wish I wasn't so serious at a young age.

I know. My mom reminds me of "all the things I lost" as a kid. The fun memories. Oh well. You can't have everything in life. Partying's kind of boring. But at least I love what I do!

I thought I was a master of surprises, but you got me beat! You are way ahead of the game. Good for you and your mother has taught you well. I'm a bit of a late bloomer myself and finally controlling my emotions in terms of the markets. I agree with Miss T. Don't forget to have some fun. Your billions should still be waiting.

Wow! Congrats on getting started investing at such a young age! I didn't start until I was about 18!

Good Job Tony! I know all too well you are making some decent money on your website, I wish I was generating that kind of extra revenue working from home at 15 years old. I was making $5 an hour when I was 15 and that was bussing tables at a country club (16 years ago) lol.

Are we going to need an age limit for challengers???
Enjoyed reading your story. Good luck, though I doubt you'll need it!

Wow! I never would have known. Remember, life is not one dimensional, develop all parts of yourself so you can handle all this talent.

Great post tony. I think your new focus is awesome.
Good luck. But don't try to be an adult too much….try to enjoy some kid stuff while you are still a kid – 15,16, 17, 18, etc…. (I hope this comes across the right way)

That's awesome Tony. Keep up the great work. People may be referring to you as "Warren Buffett" pretty soon. ;)

Congrats! Like the others said, you're definitely ahead of the game. Try to graduate college debt free to retain the advantages you've already given yourself!
To be this successful at an early age is awesome – good work!

Awesome! It's good to see more and more younger Yakeziers. Just don't burn yourself out–it's easy to get distracted from school due to online opportunities. If I could go back in time and change one thing, it would have been to dedicate 1 hour a day less to my business and 1 hour to my studies in high school.

You're right. That's what my parents sometimes remind me of.

AMAZING Post! I couldn't imagine having a business along with school and women at age 15….Your drive is inspiring even for an old 30 year old like me.
