It's not unscripted to attend a university, but the government will be paying for my education in this scenario because I know the right people who can get me in there on the basis that I claimed unemployment benefits for a while because of my asperger's. I can easily find the right organizations to contact and it'll keep my family from being foul headwinds if I'm making what they consider to be 'the right moves'. I can't show them any results at home because this environment feels too comfortable to push myself towards any real progress on a consistent basis. It's easy to lose my focus and get sidetracked doing 10 other things. I make schedules for myself, but rarely follow them. I've realized that I was arrogant enough to think that entrepreneurship was easy, when it's actually like eating glass whilst staring into the abyss. I haven't even made any money from entrepreneurship yet and that's a good thing, because I'll probably squander that wealth with not knowing enough about financial management, or even time management.
In University, you are forced to be on a schedule and your learning is concentrated onto one field. With a strong financial skillset, I could start a business that actually lasts. Not a half-assed pipe whim like soapmaking. Being on a consistent schedule for 3-4 years will train me to be more disciplined and even when my routine has been taken from me and I'm forced into chaos, I'll still be away from living in my father's basement. So after graduating I can get the job to raise capital to invest into a business pursuit that is logical, or take side hustles and learn more skills so that I can buy an existing business and improve it.
My mental health will decline either way. You need to start with something that's a bit easier, that feels beneath you, to build your discipline to an above average level. University is infinitely more easier than entrepreneurship. If I can't see University through, I won't see entrepreneurship through. Discipline and resilience through tough situations are necessary for your overall well-being as a man. I need to learn how to handle stressful situations because I'll be managing a bunch of financial instruments at once. I'm not going to attend a top university, but I could still meet people my age who have fathers who run small companies. Maybe I'll pick up more information along the way and I might have 2 hours free each weekend to learn a new skill that will add onto what I'm learning. It's easier to measure progress in a controlled environment and my home isn't good enough for that.
