What the actual fuck? THIS is ethical hacking? I learned using nmap and wireshark way back when I was 18. This is a scam isn't it?
Sans institute is what you are looking for.

I was gonna get some extra courses at a cc during the summer and some of their required courses was literally just learning to use Windows
Why not just go to college and get some information security degree?

I'm sure you don't have a fucking clue how to use wireshark, fucking retard. Kill yourself.

We're rich, my parents tell me they don't have any problem if I don't get a job, they have enough money to feed me, but I should do something that interests me

>Read between the lines
That's not how it works. Reading between the lines does not mean imagining shit out of thin air and declaring it as fact.

Ace the course &|| top your class. Don't make your family feel as though they don't understand you.
Printscreen their desktop and then hide their icons.
Do well. Your parents are just trying to help.
