I turned down good job offers because none of them would provide any satisfaction. I am considering various graduate school options – business, law, or more engineering (have masters). For those that have switched out of the corporate rat race, what advice can you offer to someone wanting to skip this stage all together? Experience is helpful, but not required to do your own thing. I heard something on the radio about an 18 year old CEO of a virtual airline in the UK (Nexus Airlines or something like that). Anything can be done if enough effort and mind is put in. Well sure some luck is involved, but only if you expect to be Bill Gates. Right now satisfaction at an equivalent salary is all that is required.
