Hi guys,
So I got a question what is your opinion at school. Online I often see entrepreneurs bashing school saying stuff like “A students work for C students” and stories about how people are making million dollar businesses being high school or college dropouts and school sucks and it does nothing for you and yada yada. However in my real life I’ve noticed the most successful entrepreneurs tend to be people who gone to school and who give it at least some value.
Personally, I’ll admit I just love learning and I did pretty well in high school ( like top 10 percentile on SATs wel) and experimentation on concepts. I also had really good teachers to help me out who gave me a lot of wisdom, so I might be cheating a little but I never felt that school was as bad as people made it sound. I’m not saying school is perfect or doesn’t need and hell I’m uneven an entrepreneur ( yet ).
But I’m curious do you buy into the school sucks garbage or is it just an online thing only?
Education is important. It doesn’t need to be a college degree, but having the technical background in your field so that you can build a competent business is vital to your success. I’ve always viewed the traditional educational path to be a process of creating great employees – if you let it. If you use the knowledge learned in school for something better, then it’s worthwhile.
