Nothing wrong with that, I do too.
It's just that I reckon it should be more of a hobby unless you can turn it into a wage packet.

I should point out that I'm talking in general terms here, rather than anyone on here.

During the last year and a half,
thanks to my job I've learnt more about physics, chemistry and mechanics than I ever did at school or college. This definitely proves something.

Probably that spending seven years copying out bits of the textbook, then selectively burping them back up in the exam without any real understanding isn't the best way to learn things.
