[quote=Anonymous]My brother dropped out of college. He works in IT and has done well. FWIW, I have a relative with multiple graduate degrees who has done absolutely nothing with his life. I have met several billionaires who either dropped out of college or never went, one of which is Bill Gates. The others are in the real estate, coal, and oil businesses. That doesn't count Ted Turner, who was thrown out of Brown (and who I have never met). Smart, hardworking risk-takers, all. In a way, I think it's probably easier to build a huge business like that when you don't have a college degree. College makes it easier to settle into a cushy, medium to high-wage job that will make you comfortable enough to be afraid to gamble everything on a dream. [/quote]
