Describe, in detail, how you have acted as an autodidact, similarly to the way Malcolm X has. Describe the importance of what you taught yourself.

Something that i've taught myself was how to play the Bass guitar. At the age of 13 I found myself enjoying the sound the bass gave off, from the E-string to the G-string and form then on I started to teach myself how to play as a little hobby. Teaching myself how to play the guitar was probably the only thing that keep going. There wass other things that caught my interest, but i knew i could go further getting better at playing my bass.
I believe that the significants of this autodidact is if i were to end up down and out, I may still have something rely on to pick myself up and start over.
BUT I HOPE I DONT HAVE TO USE THE SKILL THAT I TAUGHT MYSELF TO MAKE CHUMP CHANGE.
