Are you feeling like College is crushing your soul? Are you feeling like you don't want to go at all but it seems like everyone is expecting you to go? I'll show you how easy it is to go on an adventure, work, do research or attend a coding academy. You can take your own pathway. You can even do it with a friend,
You can even just take a semester off. College will still be there when you get back. But more likely you'll find that the real world is so much better you won't wan to go back. You can do it. You don't need to spend $100k on college to tell you what to do. I speak from personal experience.

Why?
College is expensive. And probably doesn't teach you worthwhile skills. You already know this because you are reading my post.
Why me?
I went to an Ivy, graduated, with Honors with a BS in engineering. But...I almost dropped out because I was sick of jumping through hoops. I wish I had dropped out and saved $100k. After graduating, I started a biogas business raising $1m in investment and Thai restaurant in Kenya (both successful and tons of fun). I didn't need a degree for either of these.
What will you do?
I thought if I dropped out I'd be living in my parents' basement and be a useless person. My story proves I didn't need to worry about that. I'll help you find a pathway that makes more sense for you that is cheaper, more fun and more educational.
Give me some examples
Apply to be a Thiel Fellow and get $100k to drop out of college.
If you are thinking about computer science join a boot camp and get a 6 figure job in 6 months.
If you want to travel I tell you about my experience on 4 continents and 35 countries and how to travel for next to nothing using Workaway or similar places to find work and volunteer.
Want to work and travel? Go on an Edventure to help a social enterprise build something great.
Join a startup Accelerator like Village Capital, GSBI, Fledge, Mentor Capital Network or Unreasonable Institute.
Learn to program or be a data scientist at Lambda School in 6 months instead of 4 years and get a 6 figure salary. And best of all you don't pay for the school until after you get a job.
Join Praxis which is sort of like an Apprenticeship based college education.
Enter your idea in the Pioneer competition.
If you don't know what you want that's okay too. I'll help you figure it out. (hint: no one ever "figures IT out" but we will come up with something that inspires you this week.)
I'm not sure.
Let's talk about it for free. Reserve a spot on my calendar.
