Yes, it's nice to have this kind of discussion.

I'm horrible at business and economy. Too many humans in the loop, I don't understand the logic behind. And it really gives me the impression of fooling peoples. I tried to do consulting in freelance, but was really not my cup of tea. I quickly came back to employee. I'm really efficient in my job, so it gave me spare time to work on other topics. And as my company encourage innovation, It's a win-win relation. I have a lot of autonomy and have regular bonus for IP and patent I fill. I know it's penuts regarding money they do on my back, but I can work on things I like.

I never went to Florida. I visit West coast twice (Seattle, LA, and San Francisco for job). US is so different than Europe. I felt like in amusement park, everything is so big, so clean (and a bit so fake 😂).

It's not the first time I heard about gifted program. Is it something common in US ? How does it works ? Is it a separate private school, or just a special class in classic school ?
