    On my way to an advisory meeting Google Maps took me past the place I used to live in my car when I first came to Silicon Valley. I was homeless, had no skills, no degree, just $300 and a laptop, but that’s all you need. Here’s to making it easier for the next generation.pic.twitter.com/9SJ4Arq2j2

        Have you written about that part of your journey anywhere? Would love to hear how you grew skills, found work, etc.

        that’s awesome. When I moved to SV I lived at a hostel and cleaned toilets while building my startup.

        The first 4 years of our marriage, my wife and I made less that $10,000 combined. Lived in assisted housing with our newborn daughter. College, hard work, and privilege got us to Silicon Valley where we flourished.

        I'd argue that there are internal resources which are both indispensable and far from evenly distributed. But the fact that these alone, plus some luck, can be enough is 👍. And to the extent that education helps people find and develop these resources, all I can say is Go.
