It helps to organize, analyze, and decipher information, and doing that has allowed me to make better informed business decisions.

Excellent post!
And I agree, school helps Your thinking by training Your mind in logic etc.
But the system isn't tailored to the individual as much as to the personel
industries are looking for and so on.
Taking the steps towards being a more independent business-person in this world
isn't easy but it's worth more than a degree here or there in my opinion.
The world today is super-competitive and only strong individuals will have exceptional profit/success.
All others have to work harder & harder as employees.
For entrepreneurs, school can be good for training their minds...
but not always for relevant knowledge & skills.
It's best if You can get that on Your own instead, following Your own interests close to 100%.
