First of all, let me tell you that I'm not the person that will make your life decisions. The only one able to do that is you!
As of today, I've finally graduated with my bachelor's degree as a mechanical engineer!
I've spent the last 4 years working my a$$ off to finish this part of my life... While spending a lot of hours per week on my education, I also did a lot of side hustles. One of the side hustles eventually generated a nice income from which I can live off of, nothing crazy but it gives me some peace of mind.
Why am I telling you all of this?
Because I've seen a lot of people drop out lately... even in the last stages as they were about to finish their education.
All because they "wanted" to start their own business or even worse, they didn't know after 3.5 years if they actually liked what they were learning.
Education is expensive... so why waste the time (and money) you've spent grinding to get through the years to throw it all away because you "want" to pursue a business venture?
I'm glad I didn't drop out!
Why?
Because whenever my business pursuit fails and I have nothing left in the bank, I can relatively easily get a "high"-paying job.
And why is that important?
Because the faster you fill up that bank account, the sooner you can get back to going all-in on your market-tested business model!
