Steven Wang, a 22-year-old entrepreneur based in New York, reflects on his decision to drop out of Harvard after eight months to pursue his investing business, dubbed "dub." Wang's early entrepreneurial spirit was influenced by his immigrant parents, leading him to launch ventures from a young age, including a successful VR education company. Though he acknowledges missing certain aspects of the college experience, he doesn't regret prioritizing his work over social life, embracing the sacrifices necessary for pursuing his passions and ambitions in the tech industry.
Dropping out of college was the right decision. Throughout my life, I've traded my social life to pursue ideas I believe in.
Watching my parents build new lives inspired me to try new things, leading to entrepreneurial projects from a young age.
I worked on Realism, a VR education company, which ultimately led me to drop out of high school and pursue entrepreneurship full time.
Even though I missed out on some parts of the college experience, I don't regret choosing to focus on my entrepreneurial passions.
