Speaking as a biotech entrepreneur who hasn't been paid for 3 years ....
I haven't been paid for my entrepreneurship except with equity in myself :)
If you don't have the passion and the ability to suffer pain of an emotional and financial nature ... don't found a start up or be part of the founding team.
If you are chained to a paycheck, you have already checked out and given up and you'll never be an entrepreneur.
Gotta work off school loans... will come back to poor college student lifestyle after that. Nothing is forever. Entrepreneurship is just slowed down. Making school cheaper/more accessible seems like a more annoying challenge than raising $35k, but one which is also potentially much more impactful.
