1) Despite high school not being easily deferrable he can get a GED instead and go to community college
2) We are not most startups. We may still fail and we accept that. We believe the process has inherent learning value. So we win regardless of financial gain.
3) Due to our youth we will have to prove our competence in other ways. We will work extra hard to make people take us seriously. Age is only a biological number. Maturity is different.
4) I am making sure we both work hard to learn. Learning is part of the process. There is always more to do so we want to work as hard as possible.
I will do my best to remain calm and keep the team level headed. That is some important insight.
I agree with you about the importance of collaboration on the different elements and we will check and help each other.
I started up when I was 18, and ended up going to uni when I was in my mid 20s - "these people are so much younger than me!". It was a mistake (for me) not to go when I was 18.
But in your heart you know what it is you want to do. You can always change track later. Richard Branson didn't finish high school.
