/biz/ - Business & Finance

Because I have an academic scholarship with 1.5 years of transferred credit, in addition to grants to cover living costs, all while trading the market with money I saved working in high school. I would not presume any of my business ideas are worth risking a free (actually net positive with my profits) ride through school. If her idea was so great, she could have waited another 3 years. She's not making the next facebook here.

She's far more successful than anyone here. Go back to /r9k/, neckbeard.

I dropped out and I'm Magikarping all over the place. Don't do it unless you have a deal waiting for you or a bankable plan.

>>256222

My point is that you talk like a nigger.

forever a poorfag

>>256227
obviously

you only hear about the successful ones, but thinking that staying in school is better than capitalizing on an up and coming business is just stupid (>>256197)

>>256237
She dropped out after she secured investments. Of course there's no reason to stay in school at that point.

also

Sup /biz/tches.

Why haven't you drop out of college to start your own company?

What a woman

>>256281
haha epic !!!! xDD jews suk

You only hear the success stories, numb nuts. You don't hear about all the failures.

Amazing what professional photography can do

Get ready

because I enjoyed my education and the opportunities it brought me were very useful.

because there's actually more to my life than work.

>>256296
Her voice, shit it's even worse than my waifu Marissa's laugh.

>>256294
>muh success stories

No shit.

Anyway, I want to know if the hype surrounding her company, Theranos, is justified.

>woman founder and CEO
too bad her company isn't publicly traded, sounds like a good shorting opportunity

>>256436
Nobody knows. They're extremely secretive regarding their product to protect against competition. But fuck, if a 19 year old convinced a bunch of venture capitalists to give her millions of dollars, there has to be something to it.

My speculation is to buy $THEIRANUS

>>256448
I came from an analytical chemistry background. I'm still extremely skeptical of what her company is offering. It's easy to design a machine that give you a number, but does the number mean anything? I wanted to see the accuracy and precison of the test results.

Hopefully, I was wrong about my skepticism. I would love for her technology to be real.

>>256187

Is her family rich as fuck, just like Bill Gates' was?

>>256233
Dont save anything for the swim back

>>256187
>Holmes, a sophomore majoring in chemical engineering at Stanford University, started the company with a bridge loan from a venture capitalist.

How could a college sophomore secure a loan so quickly?

>>256547
>GATTACA
nice.

>>256558
She probably just got lucky and I'm sure having an extremely profitable and revolutionary idea did not hurt

fuck yeah.
love that movie

>>256441
OHHHHHH SNAP!

only a 2 year degree, run me about only 2.5 grand because of scholarships and subsidization

basically it will make me look cooler if I ever need a job (independent investor via trustfund babby)

Fucking captcha.

Anyway, that lady has an awful voice, much worse than most MTFs I've heard. I feel bad for that.

However, she does have a neat idea. Too bad it'll get shot down by big pharmaceuticals because that shit will dig into profits. I wish her luck.

>>257261
What does her company has do with big pharma? She is selling medical service not drugs.
