00:00:00.000 What do you think about university?

00:00:01.340 I'm not anti-university.

00:00:03.200 I'm anti-wasting your money and your time

00:00:05.460 on things that aren't going to get you what you want.

00:00:07.140 If your goal is to be in a certain profession

00:00:09.460 that doesn't need university,

00:00:11.040 then wasting your time at university is fucking dumb.

00:00:13.200 If you want to be a doctor, you have to go to university.

00:00:14.760 If you want to be a software programmer,

00:00:16.000 you 100% don't have to go to university.

00:00:17.660 If you want to be a fucking editor or photographer,

00:00:19.240 you don't have to go to university.

00:00:20.300 I'm not a fan of saddling people down with so much debt.

00:00:23.760 That's my problem at university is that

00:00:25.500 you need to figure out what is the problem

00:00:27.460 you're trying to solve.

00:00:28.180 And for most people, the problem they're trying to solve,

00:00:30.220 university's not the best move.

00:00:31.480 Take a year off, take 10 grand, go live in hostels

00:00:34.540 and travel the world and make it a concerted effort

00:00:37.000 to meet people.

00:00:37.840 The ROI of that's gonna be way bigger than go to university.
