Is Your CS Degree About to Become Worthless?...
The truth about tech careers in 2025 that nobody wants to tell you...
đ Hey Future Tech Mogul!
Remember when a CS degree was your golden ticket to Silicon Valley?
Yeah... about that. đŹ
I just dropped a đŁ FIRE interview with Sajjaad â the 20-year-old prodigy who speedran college (got a Bachelorâs AND a Masters from Georgia tech in only 3 years), landed a $250K software engineering job at 20 years old, and is now spilling ALL the tea about what's really happening in tech right now.
Plot twist: His answer about CS degrees will probably make you question everything you thought you knew about breaking into tech.
đ„ What We Uncovered (Spoiler Alert: You wonât be replaced yetâŠ)

The Good News: Software engineering isnât dead... yet
đ”âđ« The Plot Twist: Itâs evolving faster than your ability to keep up with JavaScript frameworks
đ€Ż The Reality Check: 25% of Googleâs new code is now written by AI
đĄ 4 Game-Changing Secrets We Revealed:
Why AI Wonât Replace You (But someone using AI definitely will)
The Communication Hack that separates the $50K devs from the $250K ones
Developer vs 10x Developer Mindset (Hint: Youâre probably doing it wrong)
Personal Branding Secrets that turn code monkeys into industry authorities
đŻ The Million Dollar Question:
Should you still get a CS degree in 2025?
Sajjaadâs answer might surprise you.
Itâs not a simple yes or no â itâs way more nuanced than that, and honestly, it could save you 4 years and $100K+ if you get it right.
đ€ The AI Reality Check
Hereâs whatâs actually happening:
Software engineers are becoming managers of AI teams
Instead of 1 engineer = 1 feature, weâre heading toward 1 engineer = 100 features
The world of tech is about to literally explode in the next decade
Translation: Get on the AI train or get left at the station. đ
đ° Why This Matters to YOUR Bank Account
Saajjad went from college freshman to $250K earner by age 20 (and even more from his content!).
His secret? He didnât just learn to codeâŠ.he learned to think like the top 1%.
And no, itâs not about grinding LeetCode for 12 hours a day.
(Thank god, right?)
