Hi Everyone,
I am 16, currently entering the second semester of my sophomore year of high school. I had a 4.13 GPA my freshman year, and that was the highest GPA possible. The first semester of my sophomore year I had a 4.33 GPA, and that is what I currently have now.
I thought that I needed to have the good GPA for college and all, but after watching hundreds of hours of YouTube videos and reading books such as "The 10 Pillars of Wealth" by Alex Becker, "Drop Out and Get Schooled" by Patrick Bet-David, and of course "TMF " by MJ DeMarco, I am not sure if college is right for me.
The only reason I was working for the grades was primarily because of my parents, but after I was exposed to the new knowledge I began to want to put effort into what I wanted to do. I know I will be a successful entrepeneur at some point because I always become very good at something if I put my mind to it, but I am not sure if 4 years of my life should be spent at college and if that will be the best move for me, especially with the expensive cost of university.
I have been selling things ever since I was born, and I recently launched my first "official" company "Business Cannon" this winter. I have already made back a return on my investment into the company, and I plan on individually studying code and design and growing my business until I have enough money to begin investing in bigger softwares while also growing my business to be more autonomous and require less involvement from me. My dad is also an entrepeneur and he has been working for himself since 2006, and has seen many successes and also many failures and I think of him as a great mentor.
Thank you for reading this and I cannot wait to meet all of you on this forum!
