I am one of those who started with building a computer from scratch when I was 12ish. By the time I was 18, I thought that I was way behind and needed to learn marketing, business, finance, etc, if I wanted to do startups. Here's the perspective at more than twice your age: Success isn't going to be determined by when you started learning something, but by whether you learned it once you realized you needed it. There is no school in the country that is going to teach a course in your business, because every business is different. Success comes to those who work hard and improve and will teach themselves whatever they need to learn. If your interest in entrepreneurship means a string of 120 failed lemonade stands, then you're already well ahead of nearly every biz school graduate in the country. If it has meant sitting on your butt wishing you were rich since you were 12, then nothings going to happen until you change. Learn programming- its valuable. More valuable is learning to teach yourself what you need to do what you want to do. That's the key to success.
