There is no pressure. There is no advantage to being an entrepreneur while young versus being older and more established. Contrary to the stories portrayed on here with young college drop outs raising valuations of billions, the more typical path and historically the one with a much greater chance of success is a middle aged engineer founding a company in a niche he knows about. I too felt like you at a young age and am glad I stuck with the career. It let me do all the life things (get married, have kids, etc) in a stable environment. Now as I age, I also have (or rather, soon will have) the finances to freely choose to pursue something more independent. It all depends on why you want entrepreneurship. I think if you just want to have money, then this it's a foolhardy path. But if you are excited by the idea of making something new, then there's really no rush. Just wait until the right time comes along, build up skills along the way, and bank your salary
