I want to be an inventor but i never though of it as a job, just what i wanted to do.

I am in IT now and tinkering on my homelab and customised linux feel close enough. The main essence i needed seem to be simple exercising a flow of creative ideas.

    I also wanted to be an inventor in elementary school, then I learned about how f-ed up the patent system is and I lost that interest. I became a DIYer instead. It’s saved me tons of money being able to fix things and build things.
