It's risky though: If your startup goes belly up, many people will think of you as just a loser who dropped out of school because he/she couldn't handle it, even if that's unfair. Let's hope this dynamic changes in the future.
- sliverstorm 16y agoWhat you are asking for is failures to no longer be regarded as failures. Maybe it's unfair, maybe it was just bad luck that conspired against you, but I can't really see a world in which failure is just as acceptable as success. If the label of failure rubs you the wrong way, take it as an incentive- buck up, get back in the fray, and try again until you're a success.
