So much emotion! I graduated from a fairly shitty (and getting worse) state school and I started my own company. Which failed!

Then I started another. Horrible failure! Then another. And another!

And now I own a successful company built off all my previous learnings and failures. The “rich fucks” work for me now!



I like how other than being triggered by the word rich fucks your reply has nothing to do with universities being remote or in person, just you bragging about personal accomplishments? I mean congratulations, but universities are still going to charge more by requiring you to go on location.


I was triggered because people rationalize why they fail because of “other people”. But the reason you fail has nothing to do with universities


Universities are still a scam though, that was the point of the original comment
