The core answer in this post is correct: decide for yourself. But here are a couple of other nuances. What commitments have you made to others? The less than 1MM ARR one is a good example: if you think you won’t be anble to make it succeed, stop. But try to shut it down in a way that doesn’t leave your customers in the lurch. It can be appropriate for you to quit while others don’t: I’ve left companies I’ve founded when they got too big for me; others continued. Again, nobody left in the lurch. And on hiring, I am unenthusiastic about candidates with some college but no degree. College is hard and a degree shows that you can finish something hard. BUT, “unenthusiastic” isn’t a blanket “no” — if there are other reasons to talk to them then I still will. Perhaps they simply couldn’t afford it and do want to go back and finish. Also no college at all says nothing either way about whether the candidate can finish things or not. And of course after the candidate has a couple of jobs under their belt I don’t really even look at their education at all.
