Memo To Peter Thiel: Start-Up CEOs Are Not Heroes

Writer's clearly butthurt.

Not sure where Thiel is stating that entrepreneurs are only ever born. He's saying that your time and money are better spent honing your skills running a company in the real world and learning from the infinite supply of material available for free, than spending 200k on an Ivy League education that will more likely teach you how to become a corporate drone, and waste a lot of time.

"...with both education and industry expertise, the odds of start-up survival rise to 77%. And the same benefits of education and industry expertise hold true for start-up profitability — without them there’s an 8% chance of profits; with them a 61% probability..." why not take it one more step and tell the diff between just education and industry expertise? That would make this more than drivel.

Forbes has very hit or miss content.
