What advice would you offer current philosophy students?
Study Nietzsche 🙂
My original plan was to pursue the Law. I was very interested in logic and proper argument formulation. Philosophy opened my mind to so many different ideas and worlds, that I felt whatever I pursued would be valuable experience, regardless. I became an entrepreneur and have owned and operated 3 different companies. My 4th one is my real estate business.
