The main idea of this article is about Cyrus Pishevar, a 13-year-old resident of Palo Alto, California. He is one of Silicon Valley's second generation of Web innovators. One of those teens who grew up online, watching and feeding the rise of Facebook and other nearby ventures.

[Facebook Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg didn't drop out of Harvard University until his company was gaining traction, when he was 20. That's a model that young people should heed, Wadhwa said. "If by any chance you happen to achieve the success that Zuckerberg did, then drop out of school," he said. "But don't screw up your education until you've done that."]

I strongly agree with what Wadhwa have said above. Especially, the last sentence where he mentions that young people should not screw up their education until they are really ready.

My opinion on this topic is although teens these days can become web entrepreneurs because writing software is cheaper and simpler. Also, there are a lot of other factors which helped these young people to grow their business online. There is nothing wrong with this but ultimately they should still focus and concentrate on their education. I felt that web entrepreneur such as Peter Thiel should  not be encouraging students to drop out. Plus, these young people got to bear the consequence of their action. For instance, they may not have enough qualification to fall back on should their ventures fail.

In conclusion, I seriously think that pursuing entrepreneurship should not come before an education.
