Should I to University or jump right in
Hi guys I’m 17 and from England, I’m really keen on building a rental property portfolio which I can grow into a business.
I’m now having to make the decision whether to go to university (to study a finance related degree because that’s what I’m passionate about) or to skip university and get a job at 18, allowing me to avoid student debt and maybe get into investing sooner.
The problem with this is maybe my income won’t be as high as it would with a career in finance, so the pace at which the portfolio grows will be slower.
Has anyone got any opinions on this, maybe some past experience or advice? It would be really appreciated.
