No, I come from rural America, where my family did have family businesses...except they did not teach me any of it... They assumed sending me to college would be the best thing for me. Yet compared to running your own business, corporate American jobs are normally terrible and make no sense.

They paid for my college which I wasted by going to vocational schools. I eventually paid my own way through university for a CS degree. Then I moved back closer to home and "work from home" mostly.
