> “The message Europe is sending its entrepreneurs now is: stay at home” As an european, working remotely with various US companies, my response is: Completely not! There is no reason to stay and create IP in Europe right now. At least not in my opinion. Both Asia and the US are better alternatives for starting up than doing so here.

I honestly think that a change in mindset is needed for attracting entrepreneurs or making them stay. This goes from the said entrepreneurs themselves to VCs and whatnot.

If they don't change their methods, I'm afraid in some time, things will start to go downhill for the entrepreneurial environment here.

yeap, that's where i found out about it! There are a lot of awesome books around there ... if only i would have the time to read them all!

Thank you so much! I was actually thinking of going to a couple of classes in media, arts, finance, etc because that would be something new, it would keep me hooked and it would also keep people around me happy because, in their vision I'm going to college. Thanks a lot for this, great point of view!

I have looked into that, and yes, there are some pretty awesome colleges out there, but I feel they are out of my reach right now (I have no connections, it's a bit too expensive to be financing it all by myself, etc). If you would like to give me some more details, please ping me on my email: [email protected]

I didn't know there were such opportunities to study there! I'll be looking some more into that!

Hey! :D Timisoara, UVT

Thank you for your reply! I also was considering starting something on my own and dedicating all of my time to it, it's just that I'm worried since there isn't much of a "safety net" whilst you're doing such things. Thank you!

Yes, that's exactly like it was for me too! Thanks for the advice!

Hah, multumesc! :D Thanks for signing back in, I'll be sure to check mechanical engineering for future studies, I've always wanted to look some more in that domain!

Absolutely, that would be more than helpful! [email protected]

Thank you! I like the idea of being important in the community and I think that definitely is helpful! Thanks!

I didn't know I could talk to professors for this, but it sounds interesting! Thanks, I'm going to try this!

Now that sounds interesting! Thanks for this, I'll be looking for some more info!

Thank you for your reply! I too see myself crunching more than 10 hours a day to work on my own thing, it's just that all the people around me are exactly as you've described them, trying to see the only way to the nice sunset. Thanks again!

Thank you! This is exactly my view on this! That's how I was raised too: "told that I absolutely have to go to college, get a job with great benefits, and climb the corporate ladder". I will think some more on this, thank you for your response!
