Episode 1410
I was driving my daughter to school this morning, thinking about what I’d do differently if I could start all over again from high school. Truth is, I wouldn’t change much. College took me ten years, and I’ve got degrees I never really used, civil engineering and an MBA, but I’ve learned more running my own businesses than I ever did in a classroom. Still, as I’ve grown and raised four kids of my own, my perspective on college has shifted. It’s not useless. Not everyone is wired to be an entrepreneur, and college can teach valuable life lessons that you can’t always get in business.
From learning financial literacy to finding direction and discipline, there’s purpose in that journey. Whether your kids choose college or carve their own path, the key is helping them seek wisdom, take responsibility, and find what they’re truly called to do.
What’s Inside:
—Why I’ve changed my mind about the value of college
—The difference between entrepreneurs and employees
—Lessons I learned the hard way about money and taxes
—Why seeking God’s wisdom matters more than any degree
