saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

No not at all and I like meeting all kinds of founders, usually much older ones. I'm just saying it would be nice to meet people who are in the same stage in life as me

Good to connect

I considered it but for my business there are more opportunities in NYC especially since I'm not looking for VC funding. NYC is way more fun than the bay anyways. SF is alright but everywhere else is so boring, suburban, and overpriced.

saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

Not a bad idea. I'm bootstrapped so that makes it a little harder considering those places are mostly interested in equity but a couple introductions wouldn't hurt

saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

Hoping for that. I mostly hang around NYU kids and everything there is very internship-based. Maybe I should've met more people at Stanford haha

saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

Done.

saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

I definitely go to meetups for programmers and entrepreneurs but everyone there is 30+. Which is fine but I want to be around people my age too

I considered YC but I ended up not needing funding and just bootstrapped it

saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

I meant more like people who dropped out for their startups

saas_manon Ask HN: Where to find founders in their early 20s?

You know any servers?

Having rich parents definitely makes dropping out a safer bet but I think the parents would still be opposed to it because they went to college and so did all of their rich friends.

> Then, if it's hard(er) to keep kids of wealthy people in school, does that mean that that process results in a generation of people that have inherited wealth and that are poorly educated?

Students with poor parents are still several times more likely to drop out (https://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/pdf/Indicator_COJ/coe_coj_2...). I'm sure very very few dropouts did it to chase an opportunity (I haven't met anyone who did what I did). They did it because they couldn't handle the schoolwork or couldn't afford college anymore.

Seems to me like most wealthy parents don't want their kids to drop out of college lol

I’d totally give this a shot if it wasn’t supported only on ipads and M-chip Macs
