Peter Thiel on the advice all young people need to hear: "My bias was that education was a substitute for thinking about your future. What are you going to do with your future? I don't know. I'll get an undergraduate degree. What are you going to do once you have that? I don't know. I'll get a graduate degree ...

And when you're eighty, which one of those things do you think you're gonna be more proud of?"
