Let’s get right down to the point: I am an education advocate. I want people to school me on why higher education is not necessary (or has a detrimental effect) to be a successful entrepreneur.
I don’t want to hear some short argument saying “Well, college CAN be helpful… but it also may not be.” I want to hear an argument explaining how those who are currently receiving a higher education are wasting their time (just as an example, of course). Be sparing with your concessions and know what you are talking about.
Think along the lines of this:
Why is college unnecessary?
How does it distort your goals?
How are you prepared for being an entrepreneur straight out of high school?
Here’s what’s going down:
- I want any length blog post or email (jim.gordon@b5media.com) explaining why education isn’t necessary to be a successful entrepreneur
- Blog posts must link back to this page
- The last day to submit entries will be April 4th - that’s 2 weeks from today!
- If you are emailing, include Education Contest in the title
I’ll keep everyone posted on the entries and the progress of the contest. Now for the juicy part… the prize.

2 entries = $10 Amazon.com gift card
4 entries = $20 Amazon.com gift card
