Looking back on your college experiences, would you say that the social and net-working aspects from college are just as valuable to your current careers as the education you recieved in college? why or why not?

Although the point of college is to learn and become educated for future careers, I've been told the importance of networking. I am wondering, from others' personal experiences, how being social and networking may have helped them build their careers. #college #career #graduate #social #networking

I have seen very successful Bar and Grills in slow and very busy locations. How do you, or how did you decide on where to build your Bar? What do you look for in a customer base and how did you get them coming back? #business #real-estate #restaurants
