I am young, capable, intelligent, and out of money. I spent three years paying for college by running my own business.
While learning many skills in the school of hard knocks, my business became insolvent and I no longer want to juggle school and business at the same time. I will graduate with my bachelor’s degree next May in Finance from a state university here in the U.S.
From there I want to get my J.D., MBA, Master of Economics, and Master of Engineering.
I want to learn it all...and I am completely serious and understand what this undertaking will entail. I feel this inner fire within me that has become a welling, burning thirst for knowledge to change the world.
I want to spend 18 hours a day for the next 6 years studying law, business, economics, and the STEM technical fields.
After that, I want to spend 100 hours a week in the manner of Mr. Elon Musk, savagely defeating humanity's most pressing adversaries. Slavery, war, oppression, poor access to clean water, disease, high energy costs, lack of education, lack of free speech, stable institutions, no internet, etc etc.
I do not want to graduate with $250k in debt in the process of educating myself. Is anybody willing to help me financially?
I am not egotistical, but an adherent of utilitarianism. I truly believe in the power of one individual to change the world. My first order of business after completing my formal education is creating a university with a completely different paradigm than this overburdened and defunct system we have now.
You have heard a little bit of my passion and vision. Please, someone out there help me with this and I will be forever indebted to you.
