^^^^^ what do you mean by cowardice?
I only see braveness and a man who believes in his dreams.
Now this is the ultimate MAN, not daunted about what the world will say about his decision, not even thinking of failure as a possibility.

The only problem here is that he is just one year away from graduation, let him realize this, and try motivating him to go for this last year, even if the degree may eventually become as good as tissue paper to him.
Three years of hard work, just a year to go, keywords!

Hadizy:


Please can you just all him outta this. Believe me he can read the whole thread and pick out yours as the most reasonable post. I just want him to see reasons why not to take the step he his about too.

ismokeweed:
Business is good. But an education helps also. Since he's in 300, why are you guys advising him to drop out? What will it take to just finish school, then fully face the business? The people paying his fees since, are they idiots? He should fulfill his obligation. At least, have something to fall back on. If he had not started at all, that is a different case. Who would be happy to spend money for years on a child's education only for him to throw it all away at the last minute? People com here to talk of bill gates. You must not be a drop-out to be a billionaire.

chiboy429:
Exactly ismokeweed ,you on point this is just what am just trying to imply in other sentence ,elxandre is misconstrue me . It is very wrong for him to hail the guy in question for such a decision . Wooow hadizy i can feel how desperate you are to pull your bro back on course, just take it easy everything is going to be fine

Elxandre:


Also, how is his financial backing? Is it rigid? These is one detail to be considered!

Are you sure he doesn't have any school issues though?

Hadizy:


Thanks .


But how do I do that? How do I let him know how important it is?

Lacomus:

Hadizy Bebe.

I hope you took permission from your friend before talking about his life on here.

Just my #2kobo.

One more thing, stop overworking yasef, if you're nagging/fretting about it in anyway, Please STOP!

That might drive him nuts or to the wall, whichever happens first.

I'm sure your friend is wise. He will make the right decision.

One more thing you can do now is love and support him from a distance, whichever path he finally chooses.

It gets better.

ohhk.....u should drop out of school too and start ur business..... Mtchew

Hadizy:
Please help me talk to him, he's almost through and should be graduating next year.

Seun:

If this is true and he has no carry-overs or other problems then I don't see why he should drop out. The degree is very useful and he'll regret not having it, though it won't stop him from being successful in business. I didn't drop out of uni to pursue Nairaland, I dropped out because I had issues that made it hard for me to cope, and those issues were not solved because we didn't understand them. By the time I started pursuing business, I would have had to start again from square one, so I decided to use those 5 - 6 years for business instead.

Bill Gates took a break from university because he discovered a once-in-a-lifetime business opportunity that he could not afford to miss. If Microsoft hadn't become such a phenomenal success, he would have returned to school. So maybe your friend should just take a 1 year break to face his business. I believe there's a provision for that if he notifies the school authorities in advanced instead of just leaving. If after 1 year of business, he still doesn't feel the need to go back to spend just one more year to get his degree, then you can reluctantly support him.
