One of the big posts up top talks about the network OP will miss out without college.
Let's analyze.
Which dev will be more experienced: 4 years of full time dev work or fresh out of college?
Who will be more financially stable?
Who will have a larger network in the valley?
Who will be more employable?
Who will be earning more exactly four years from now?
Which one will have less debt?
Which one would perhaps even have savings?
- djloche 12y agoIt's past the time I can edit my comment, but I agree with your post (you've basically stated what I attempted to, in a much clearer fashion.) 4 years of full time dev work is far more valuable career wise than the average 4 years of college.
- ninjaplease 12y agoNice job saying "let's analyze" and then doing absolutely zero analysis. He has all his life to make money. The career path you have as a college student is different though, you are much more likely to meet your co-founder in school for example, and the window for attending university is not the same.
