    I attended UCI 25 years ago and the difference in maturity of the students now is quite impressive. We never hustled like this back then but I am happy to see a whole generation of budding business minded kids. I moved back to Irvine a few years ago to open up a couple businesses and I must say, the diversity of cultures and attitudes here is tremendous.

    Kasra coming at us with the heat 🔥 I'd love to hear more about his entrepreneurship journey as I feel like there may be a lot of people in college who want to follow a similar path but don't because of societal norms. I wish I started my UA-cam channel even earlier than I did, but you know what they say, yesterday was the best time to start your business, but today is the second best time. Great video Charlie!

    It's interesting how people associate college students with youth. For instance, if someone is in college they are still deemed incompetent and lack maturity to actually live. But really, if you're in college then you're an adult. To make money and to live is something you are expected to do. To not want to "adult" is an indication that you shouldn't be in college.
