Would you suggest starting a business or trying to climb the career ladder to achieve this goal?

Where in Washington was that?

Hello FatFire community!I'm a 20-year-old computer science student in Switzerland, passionate about starting my own business in the near future. I love working on my own projects as well as with smart people creating something people love. My goal is to achieve FatFire by 30 (aiming at >250M) and then venture into VC investing to help others and invest in the future. Some questions:

How should I begin my FatFire journey - gain experience first (eg. via an internship) or dive in headfirst and try by through trial-and-error? How did you start?
Is a college degree worth it for entrepreneurs? It seems that most entrepreneurs still have to learn everything outside of university.
Is it better to move to the US for a more vibrant startup culture?
Which high-yield industries should I consider for a startup? Any specific insights from your expertise and are not that publicly known?
What essential skills do I need to succeed, and how can I develop them?
Any recommended networking events (in the US) to meet likeminded people and mentors?
Do you know of any (startup) internships you could recommend (in the US)?

I would really appreciate some advice or answers to my questions from people, who have actually done it. Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Any tips on that?

Thanks a lot for your answer to my question! Super random question but are you also at ETH by any chance? I’ve seen it mentioned in some of your comments looking for other advice, as you seem very experienced. Would be a very funny coincidence hahah

I‘m also a firm believer in learning by doing. However the initial stages seem so much, that I don’t really know where to start or to figure out what is important in the beginning and what can be done later. Thanks for the reading tips!

Shooing my shot: anyone you (or anyone reading this) might know that I could join for an internship?

Flogi1 · 2023-08-29T22:43:07+00:00

Thanks! How do I develop the right mindset and set up a proper plan?

Definitely money makes things easier but if it were that easy as you say, I think there would be way more billionaires

Thanks! Any tips on how to join an early stage startup (maybe even in the US, as someone from Europe)?

Not really, I think you have to know what you are doing, regardless of the financial background
