Untemplating Entrepreneurship Tick tock… tick tock… it was 5:00pm and I had another hour of grueling grunt work to get through before I could catch the train home. I was a Dinancial consultant at a top 50 consulting Dirm making $55,000 my Dirst year after graduating college. In my friends’ eyes, I was leading a successful life and on my way to getting my MBA, working my way up the corporate ladder, and retiring at age 65 a wealthy and successful man. But something just didn’t feel right. It wasn’t the 60‐hour workweeks, nor was it the fact that I could only hang out with my friends and girlfriend on the weekends; it was the fact that I was just another drone following the template lifestyle. If I stayed on my current path, I would die an ordinary person who followed the average “American Dream.”
