Great idea in theory, but not everyone can afford the costs of spending as much time as they want without income (much less follow it up by traveling for two years).
In the real world, people are often forced to 'grow up' faster than they would want due to external factors.
- jhancock 17y agoThis is mostly a problem in people's minds. You are not forced to grow up faster, you do it to yourself. I went to college without a penny from others. I worked every other quarter and did just fine. It took longer, but I also got a lot out of it and ended up without debt. Leaving school to start some "get-rich-quick" web X.0 idea is very foolish. If you luck into having a huge success on the line by doing a side project with a friend during college, that's different and very rare.
