An entrepreneur argues business school taught him less than real-world experience, but college still matters for connections and personal growth. He says if you have a mentor and industry entry, you can skip it.
Knowing that you're an entrepreneur today and having gone through several trials and tribulations along the way, how necessary or not do you believe it is to receive a quote-unquote formal education?
I think it depends, Paul. There really wasn't much that I learned in business school that I, that I didn't learn in the real world. The education wasn't that valuable. The connections, the community that you create and who you become in those formative years after high school, that's the value of college these days. But if you can know, if you're clear on where you want to go and you get somebody that mentors you and you get into your industry, depending on what profession you choose to pursue, I think college is less important now for most than it used to be.
