”Guys like you always end up in prison”.
Those were the exact words that the principal used when Paolo got expelled from school. Today Paolo runs 13 companies, has written 10 books, speaks at conferences, produces quality pasta and hosts a television show. He wasn’t a bad person - he just wasn’t very good at the whole “school thing”. Paolo means that where the school is about academic learning (important), he is more about being creative and entrepreneurial (just as important). According to Paolo the school system is trying to push you into a box with industrial principles, whereas an entrepreneur has to live as there was no box.
