A comment on Things I Wish I’d Been Told: Tips For Students with a Bachelors in Computer Science.
- Get a decent paying job doing developement or IT. At the very least, something that gives you health ins.
- Do consulting/contract gigs on the side. Choose projects that will let you expand your skills and learn new technologies.
- Live below your means and save money for 12 months.
- Month 13: build and launch your startup.
- Continue your job for at least 6 more months, but stop doing the side gigs.
- Month 18: Evaluate your startup. If it's making money, quit your job.
- If it's not making money, build and launch another startup.
- Repeat as needed.
