I just feel like sharing:
I am currently a High School senior. I'm three for three as far as colllege acceptances go which makes me feel incredible but I am still unsure where I will be going or how I will pay.
One side of me wants to start a business as soon as possible. Devote my time to fostering the network of websites I own and expanding my web design services to clients. There is plenty of other stuff I do as well, but I don't know if that's a realistic way to go on. I recognize that college will provide structure when I need it and I hope that it will get me to focus.
I wonder what college did for successful entrepreneurs. Rather how to take the most of college as an entrepreneur.
- pg 18y agoTry college! (If you can afford it.) You don't even know what all the options are yet.
- gcheong 18y agoBy afford do you mean, can pay for without racking up student loan debt? I don't quite understand the qualification here.
- pg 18y agoI added that qualification because I know not everyone may be able to afford to go to college, especially in poorer countries. I wouldn't presume to say precisely how much debt one could afford, and on what terms. I just didn't want to seem like I was assuming everyone had the option of going to college.
- gcheong 18y agoIt's not necessarily an either/or proposition at this point. Without a strong alternative, I would say go to college and continue to work on what you've built so far and keep your eyes and ears open for other opportunities. If something you have takes off or you find a very compelling opportunity and college is conflicting then make a choice at that point.
