Daniel Karpantschof is very fit mentally. Mr. Karpantschof did not receive a college degree, yet he co-founded several companies, owns stocks in one very successful tech company overseas, sold one of his companies to Microsoft, and managed to land a gig with The Economist.
When we go to college, we are told a narrative of success, we are told that we are the best and the brightest and can do anything that we want after graduation.
