I am getting sick to death of college dropouts becoming billionaires.
It’s not that I really begrudge Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and his brethren their riches, but the rare overnight success stories of Instagram, WhatsApp, and others are creating the impression that there’s only one path to entrepreneurship.
Based on how they are portrayed in movies and other forms of popular culture, the “origin” story of todays’ innovators has become almost rote: be “rebellious” by ditching school, starting a company in your garage and proving to the world your long-shot idea will change it for the better.
