This past week I graduated college with a degree in applied math and computer science. I'm 23 years old. Now that my formal education is done with I plan on focusing on entrepreneurship. I can already FEEL the FIRE inside of me from being pushed out into the real world. I had been working on a business in college
(https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/smartmoneys-beginnings.49515/), but I didn't have the same urge make my business succeed while still in school.
In a few weeks, I'm working as a software engineer at a startup, but I'm basically taking the job to be the founder's apprentice and LEARN nonstop. Projecting my budget in advance, I expect to have a 40-50% savings rate. That will help me build capital.
Currently, I'm working with a team of four others on my own web application. What MJ said about monogamy vs. polygamy is a challenge for me. I keep coming up with new ideas I want to pursue in my head.
I'm all ears for any advice to a fresh college grad and aspiring entrepreneur. This forum is GREAT and and I look forward to soaking up learning going forward.
