Skip College

I’m not the only one saying it.  If you want to be an entrepreneur, skip college.  This link is about learning a trade instead (plus some other stuff), but the idea is the same.

I know a lot of great young people who are currently in college, or have graduated in the last few years.  Most of them – most folks I know, really – have the “dream” of going to work for someone else and getting paid a weekly wage.

But where would they work if no one wanted to start new businesses?  Do new things?  Take chances?

If you want to start a business or do your own thing, it’s highly doubtful you’ll learn even the fundamentals by sitting in a classroom.  Go out, try things, fall on your face, pick yourself up, and try again.
