[quote=Anonymous]I’m an entrepreneur. it took me more than 10 years of heartache, exhaustion, financial insanity, bad decisions, lessons learned and a bit of luck before we became profitable. And when we did, we were lucky enough to make up for lots of lost time very quickly. So, using your example, I challenge any entrepreneur to share the story of when they nailed it from the get-go with no pivots, no major changes, no major mistakes. Had my business been a school, I wouldn’t have wanted my kids to be part of the first iteration of it. I don’t think this is a referendum on entrepreneurship. I’m all-in on that front. But if my choice is a well-established school with a demonstrable performance history versus the equivalent of a VC-funded throw downfield, I’ll take the former. Good luck to those who see this as an education unicorn... I honestly hope you’re right. Just not willing to bet my kids’ education on it. [/quote]
