        I love these but I always wonder why this isn't done years ago. Why wait until they're elderly?

        Life happens. It can interfere with everyone's grand plans. For some, a lot more than others. I'm impressed with his resolve to get over those events to finally achieve his goal, no matter how long it took.

        My point is that some if not most have earned their diploma but didn't receive it. It just seems it could've been given to them sooner. That's all.

        What a great representation of resolve. It doesn't have to be graduation. It can be anything that you've always felt you needed or wanted to do; just don't give up that dream. Eventually, you'll find a way, even if it takes decades. Congratulations sir!

        Do the math. 94 minus 70 means he would have graduated high school at 24. I think numbers are off here.

        Thanks, got it. Maybe they should have said 75 or so. I missed that “More than” part. 👍🏼
