If your intention is to learn rather than trying to get the degree certificate, starting a blog probably is better than going to college. Especially when you do not have the money nor planning to take on a huge debt, blogging is the alternative which you can pursuit for knowledge. Before you make any decision, it is probably better to study the pro and con from both side. Basically I’m just saying there are alternatives to gain knowledge without going to college. A blog can serve as your classroom and gather mentor or teacher from around the world. Especially if you are planning to start your own business, a college degree probably won’t be much help. Besides, you might learn a lot more about business while blogging compare to college. You will also have the opportunity to gather latest updated information online about businesses. Your blog also serve as a platform to get to know some of the successful entrepreneurs and business owners around the world. You might probably start your own business while blogging. It might be small at the beginning but it is a start. It has the opportunity to grow big if manage well. While you are blogging and doing business online, you get to learn how to hire freelancers from around the world. This is a very important part because you learn to delegate work. Once your business start blooming, you won’t be able to handle and do everything by yourself. You will also need to learn how to manage your money and banking. Finance is the word we will learn once the amount of money which we need to handle becomes huge.
This is just some of the things you will be facing if you start a blog and launched an online business. Your ability to learn will play a big role in your success. Everything you need to know is available for free online. You just have to know where to find them. One of the best parts about this is that the money which requires starting a blog and launching an online business is definitely lesser than getting a college degree. I suppose money is the main consideration when it comes to college.
