I have been programming for well over 40 years (I am early 50s) and have been writing software for money for 35 of those years (first company during high school, thanks to my chemistry teacher and my uncle, who were friends). Made a bunch of millions during the the early 2000s and kept building software, which I have always loved, since then. AI (well, LLMs) caught me off guard as it did with many people but now I happily use it and create things even faster and better because of it. I guess, like some here on HN, I did not have rich parents: I was lucky enough to grow up in the netherlands, where, at least then, university was free and people generallh were never poor so there were computers around end 70s and begin 80s. My parents taught me to not become a worker drone even though they had to be. I never had a job, only companies. That keeps it going for me and I cannot see it stop. We create things, we have fun, we sell, we start again. Until I die. I cannot imagine a better life.
