Who's gatekeeping? You're putting an awful lot of words in my mouth. I'm pointing out that a lot of people are effectively gatekeeping themselves.
I think you rather missed the point.
Everyone has fantastic resources available to them through the internet that didn't exist in the early 1980s, or whenever. And yet, people with four kids and cars and mortgages and taxes managed back then. It's even easier now. The only obstacle to anyone is apathy.
Speaking of missing the point : you’re doing a perfect example of apathy.
