Wasted $80 on a coding bootcamp prep course that was just YouTube videos
Bought this "Python for Absolute Beginners" course on Udemy for $80 thinking it would be super structured and save me time. Turns out the guy just ripped off free tutorials from Corey Schafer and Sentdex. I learned more from 2 hours of free YouTube than that whole $80 course. Has anyone else fallen for one of those overpriced beginner courses?

Wait, so you paid $80 for a guy to link you to the same free YouTube videos you could have just watched yourself? That's like buying a sandwich and finding out the ingredients were just sitting in your fridge. I swear some of these "instructors" just record themselves watching other people's tutorials and call it a course. At least now you know to check the previews and reviews before clicking buy.

I mean is $80 really that serious though, you probably spend more than that on takeout in a week and at least this taught you a lesson about doing your research before buying stuff online.
