It's certainly not curing cancer or inventing the next generation of transportation. I guess this might be part of the "start small" realization?
It seems like a lot of the college dropouts opting for startups are ultimately limiting themselves from doing the sort of hard problem solving middle-school Brandon wanted to do. I think some level of formal education would be necessary to cure cancer.

Seriously. Yeah, I see people going out and actually making something, but something of value it is not. Praying for this social bubble to pop any day now.
