That’s it

Agh

Won’t meet-ups suffice?

and "the name"

(only) if it's a good one

I’m going to a no name uni

Not in top 100

so either you can just DO your stuff,
then whatever ... no one cares at which college you were
especially when you have a portfolio to show

Ok - so my parents have always wanted me to go to college - if I don’t go, how shall I break it to them? My mum has previously had depression and says that my studies affect her

and yeah .. with the connections thing ...
so ... most of my fellow students never thought of starting their own business / doing freelance stuff

so ... the connection is also quite dependent on your situation, if it helps you or not

@JDB lol, my mum did a similar thing ...

actually we have to break that

dont let the shaming language affect you

Did u go to college?

Yeah, well I just need to move out

I still dont know the difference tbh 😛

Can’t expect them to put a roof over my head now

@JDB Oh god.... I can sympathize with that.

in germany we have 12,5years school

and then I went to university

My mom also daily’s my studies affect her health.

It’s pretty fucked up

I'd say it like that, if your parents are ok with paying your college ... so ... ok, go to college
and work in parallel on your side business, that would be the ideal case

if they dont want to do that

I’m going to tell them soon, probably tonight, so I’m going to prepare a place for me to stay

why should they have a say, in what you will do afterwards ?

wow .. if it's that critical ...

maybe you should do it slowly

If I go to college

My parents will support me a lot

They’ll also set me up with a flat for when I graduate

hmmm

And give me my savings , around 10 k

And a car

And 4K per year

xD

...

so, then think about the best strategy

But I will feel in debt to them

maybe not the best thing to burn all bridges then

Going to college and starting the business on the side sounds like the safest
