I did exactly that; I had a "secure" engineering job through college and for a short period after, but have since quit to co-found a tech company.
For the same reason one might go to school, you'll rarely be disappointed if you invest in yourself. My advice to graduates interested in startups is to work in their field of interest until their learning slows down, then to move on to bigger and better things. By starting a tech business, your skills in business and technology will grow tremendously, and will continue to pay dividends.

Obviously not the only way, though.
