It would be amazing if there was similar financial support and culture around some other structured success environment - imagine $100,000 to spend learning a craft? You could become a god in four years of concentration, not worrying about a career.

It would be interesting if someone could combine the two. Colleges give experience credit all the time. I wonder if an accredited institution could work with a company like Y-Combinator (which provides mentoring anyway) to create a business program that awarded a degree for going through a program in which you create a startup.
There would certainly have to be gen ed considerations but Universities do those online now so it wouldn't be hard to make them available.
