NSA leaker Edward Snowden was a high school dropout who later earned a GED.
He worked as a security guard and by age 29 was making $200,000 a year in Hawaii.
Doug Ross reported:
No, let’s examine the reported resume of Snowden (dates are estimated):
• Raised in Elizabeth City, North Carolina and later moved to Maryland.

• 2007-2009: CIA, diplomatic cover, Switzerland.
• 2009-2013: NSA Contractor, Dell and later Booz Allen Hamilton.
• Salary: around $200,000.
What? Seriously? So a guy who never even graduated from high school (he later reportedly earned a G.E.D.) and started his professional career as a security guard, got hired by a couple of defense contractors and — at age 29 — was making $200K a year?
Snowden donated to the Ron Paul campaign.
