I agree. I think that is something that gets lost with all the start up founders coming out of the ivy league. I worked full time when going to college. When I graduated, I had to get a job immediately to start paying back loans. I didn't have a network of high net worth individuals willing to roll the dice on me with huge checks. I'm sure me and others could do (have done) some cool stuff if we had even our bills paid for a couple of years while we tried to make a go of a cool idea.
