In this brief segment, Trystan Trenberth advises his teenage children—and by extension, young viewers—to consider taking a couple of years out of formal education before committing to college. He emphasizes that a gap period can help them discover genuine passions, leading to more meaningful and beneficial studies. Trenberth argues that life experience can be as valuable, if not more so, than immediate college enrollment, noting that many successful individuals, such as Steve Jobs, are college dropouts who later employ top graduates. He suggests that enjoying life and gaining practical experience can also provide financial advantages over the traditional college route.

I mean, my two kids, they're 17 and 19 now, and I've said to them for years, I'd love you to go to college if you choose to, but try and have a couple of years out in the world first so you can find your passion in something and go and study something you're really going to benefit from studying and be passionate about. Or just go and enjoy life because there's plenty of ways to make more money and be ahead of the kids that go to college by the time they're done with college. And, you know, we look at Steve Jobs, it's It's the college dropouts that employ the A-grade students that graduate college.
