I’d bet the average person would be better off with one year of college and three years of unpaid internships than four years of college and four years of student loans
I’ve got a company with millions in the bank. That’s the great thing about Silicon Valley, you can just make it happen.

What % of your staff has <1 year of college?
-
No it’s less than that, but I would trade college for years of experience for every one of them
-
So what’s the actual %? And how many of those come from families that come from the left half of the income distribution?
-
25% and 40% would be my guess
-
Guess?
-
Yeah I don’t take a survey of every employee to know what income background they grew up in
-
I mean that’s fine. But your initial guess was off by 100% on educational attainment and even the revised guess shows that your hiring patterns don’t reflect your rhetoric.

alright white dude with money, congrats on your exceptionally lucky circumstances. You have no earthly idea how the "average person" lives. Pay your workers a living wage or fuck off for life.
-
lol you don’t know anything about me, I do pay workers a living wage, and I’m trying to figure out how to save people billions of dollars. So if you have a suggestion I’m all ears.

I suggest you not romanticize unpaid labor
-
Hmm I never romanticized it

That’s not how I read it - just funny math and accounting with no basis in reality which is what you can expect from Silicon Valley
