I see people saying that there isn't anyone from the 20th century that is self-taught to make it viable. Since when do we give up on a dream, if you want to become the first self-taught Theoretical Physicist then go for it someone has to be the first. I am planning to be a self-taught Physicist too and no one is going to tell me I can't or it's impossible. I have been to college and you only get segment knowledge where self study requires more learning to be done that is why people have a hard time with online classes. College is a stigma that they want you to believe you need them to be successful but look at all the billionaires that dropped out and the people locked into student loans for life that are not making it very well. It is time for people like us to pioneer a new era for getting the same knowledge as you would if not better than a traditional college degree. I believe in the future people will follow in our footsteps. You need to work at it but anything worth it takes time and hard work. Good Luck and I hope people with more knowledge than me can give you better start of books and journals, but I got a lot of math, physics, chemistry, and misc to match subjects towards a traditional degree from bachelor to Phd.
