Hey Fastlaners, I need some straight forward advice which will allow me to be a better Entrepreneur. I am at bit of a crossroad in my life. Would College be worth going to at 21? In my country the maximum debt I could get into will be 20kNZD interest free. Unlike US University I think that is pretty reasonable. I am planning on doing a bcom degree and majoring in accounting which will be 3 years or is working shitty jobs while trying to start a business still the way to go? Any advice is welcome.
