[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea what is in my DNA, but I have two other siblings.  None of us 3 finished college. Two of us completed "some" college and one none.

Both of my siblings own successful businesses.

[b]I'm an executive with over 250 people under me as according to the company org chart and make a pretty large salary. My lack of degree has never gotten in my way.[/b]

Clearly there is something about the 3 of us kids that all made us beat the odds. Our parents had a very hands off approach and never really focused much on grades and never once fought our battles. Once we turned 18, we were without ceremony dumped into the world.  However, books were a huge part of our daily family life and politics were hotly debated. There was always talk at the dinner table about what was going on in the world. We were raised to ask questions, find answers, and be generally curious about how the world around us worked.

I will be paying for my kids college, but we already put heavy focus on entrepreneurial skills and strong work ethic.[/quote]

:shock: Mister, are you a very White person? Because this "no degree" shtick would not work for a colored person  - black, yellow, brown or red![/quote]
