What advice do you have for young people considering the possibility of skipping college?
— Asked by Anonymous
Don’t skip it. If you can find a way, go to a four year university, major in something you find super interesting and get involved in every activity you can. Talk to your professors, live on campus and read constantly. I studied Anthropology which I always found exceptionally interesting and I was involved in a number of campus activities.
I shaped a lot of my world-views in college and wouldn’t trade that time for anything. Four years goes by fast, and there’s always time to work later. I started a company Freshman year, and it wasn’t hard to manage both.
