My dad is a successful university professor and he sees all the different kids going through university who have no clue what they want to do and he knows they are doomed to mediocrity after graduating. He's helping me set up a couple businesses that I will work on after graduating high school while I can continue competitively with my sport for a couple years. If they don't work out, I will have to head back to university and pursue some sort of academic career. I'm 17 and I've been red pill for about a year and a half now. I've heard every story about the scams of getting a worthless uni degree and I know that if I go it'd be in a STEM degree for sure.
My dad has had countless doctorate and post-grad employees go through his lab and land jobs that give them at the most $42000 per year salaries. I could probably make that much money selling hot dogs outside a Home Depot. I know of countless successful people who didn't graduate university (Steve Jobs, Jay-Z, etc...), so it's possible for sure. Many bloggers in the Manosphere live that way too. I have no passions for any subject that can be studied in university either.
SO. My question to my fellow red pillers is:
Should I grind it out with business and risk living poor or should I get a degree and go for the best 9-5 job I can? In the back of my mind, I want to be an entrepreneur until I die, and I have the mind for it, and ideas that are realistic and can work. I just can't tell if my fear of not going to university is rational or just socially conditioned. Please give me some advice guys, I don't want to waste my youth going insane inside a school... But I don't want to fuck myself over either.
