@Extom, am sure you are reffering to the word billionaires of today that arent made in Nigeria right ? and am not going after the billionaires mofo, am going for the future and making the world a better through what have learned and acquired in college. If i can put up a dedicated team to pull of an idea and raise 100K am pretty sure i can do better than that after college. PS: Neve compare your self with those billionaires from silicon valley and i guess you are reading too much techcrunch or listening to the bullshit of dropout and start a startup. |

It’s a perennial question among entrepreneurs in the startup ecosystem worldwide: Is it better to get a degree, or does it make more sense to ditch college in favor of entrepreneurship? This topic has always been challenging as those who’ve ditched college typically claim doing so was helpful for running a startup e.g steve jobs, mark zuckerberg e.t.c. and the chances of landing a job at the age of 17 without a college degree in Nigeria was even slimmer Have always wanted to do something that will make an impact in the society which is why i started a startup called washlify with 2 pakistani programmers i met online through cofounders lab and one belarusian designer. What is washlify? , Washlify is a mobile laundry service that allows people to search and place an order with the nearest laundromat around their location. [img]https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/600/1*PhokIouFUfzty_x8onubvQ.png[/img] To cut the long story short, we completed the mobile app and it was ready for launch. We got featured on @techcabal and the buzz was going around the ecosystem, people were commenting asking when we are going to launch, customers were ready to pay any amount to remove the laundry problem and i was really happy to get those feedback and engagment with our pre-launch. We were also invited for a pitch to enter the leadpath accelerator in nigeria but i blew that up because of my pitch.

Getting funding for your startup is one of the craziest thing i will advice anyone to try if you dont have connection unless if God is on ur side. After sending 100 mails to investors with 0.1 reply, i didnt give up and i kept searching for someone who might be interested to the extent that i started calling mobile number of early stage investors Read more at : https://medium.com/@wittytom/why-i-left-my-startup-to-pursue-a-college-degree-3bc75741b0e0 |

First am not here to criticize or spoil the career of another web developer like me, but what can a guy like me do when you see a web developer designing a bad and unrepresentable web design portfolio and keep saying that he need a job... I choke in awe at some of the things they refer one to as their portfolio, and they expect you to trust their ability to deliver after looking at those. Example 1 ![]() This website is not good enough for a freelancing guy, this website looks like 1996 web development when there was no w3c standard ![]() Good example for a freelancer ![]() Example 2 This second guy is a monster.. ask me ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Link =http://www.vistaconceptz.com/ N:B am not here to abuse or spoil your job, but PLEASE FOR GOD SAKE don't ask for jobs here on nairaland unless you have a gr8t portfolio to show ur client. I will keep finding and telling you the blunt truth !!! Thanks |
