@maisonrickie: Today, we examine Harvard dropouts from a sociological perspective, tying in Bourdieu’s theory of symbolic capital into the conversation. Hope you find this interesting Oh and happy Thanksgiving! ❤️🦃
Those that can afford to dropout from Harvard are the most privileged among the privileged. They can afford to take risks that would leave most ppl with a lifetime of crippling debt

I like the video but one thing you missed to mention that the people that dropped out of Harvard , they had rich parents or very upper middle class parents they also have connections. In some of them was geniuses in their field, like Bill Gates . And you’re right it’s not a good idea to drop out of college. I feel like since you already put the money in there, you might as well just finish. it’s either go or don’t go at all.

so Harvard dropout also..kind of using institutional value to attract the investors.. because they project credibility and talent..so in a sense they love to use Harvard... because.. education never assured you success in terms of monetary value.. and have to admit not everyone get chance to Harvard

On average, Harvard dropouts are more successful than Harvard graduates 😏

now that the tech field is “the establishment,” I wonder which field will end up being the new anti-establishment career.

In 2015, getting a response to a cold email showed you had hustle. In 2025, if you are cold emailing, you are signaling that you are "low status" because you do not have a human network to introduce you. To use Bourdieu’s language: In a field saturated with synthetic "cultural capital" (AI art, AI writing, AI coding), the only capital that retains value is that which cannot be digitized: trust, physical proximity, and biological reality. The elite exclude those "not cut from the same cloth" by ignoring the digital world entirely and conducting business exclusively through high-friction, analog, trust-based networks that no algorithm can penetrate.

My bf & I are two black people who grew up middle class. We both have doctorate degrees and are trying to figure out how we can break the mold for our future kids. These videos are very educational.

I sat on a panel held at a university recently and one of the panellists encouraged d undergrads to drop out and name dropped Zuckerberg, Gates, Jobs etc. This was irresponsible cos he omitted those that didn’t — Page, Brin, Huang, Bezos, Musk, Nooyi, Pichai & many more

Speaking of education…I would love to know more of your background. Did you study sociology in school? You speak with so much knowledge.
