It's funny but all the high end millionaires and the 4 billionaires I know personally either never went to college or left or got kicked out.

How did college do for you or is it all just bs?

azguy

What's college?

azguy

College is a place young people go to hang out for 3 years because they're lazy about making the big bucks early on

Mack

Yes very much so.

I learnt what I needed to know for my work by 2nd year university. I would have quit except I was really close to graduating so I just roughed it out.

NO. i have a college degree. didnt do a damn thing for me.

graduating from the UNIVERSITY OF FALLING ON MY ASS helped me more.

Still in college but I'm beginning to think what for? Most of my older cousins who have graduated college aren't even doing what they studied for.

socially college did wonders for me - esp my third year. i probally would have quit after that but i had only two courses left to get my degree so I kept going to get those.

i found living in residence with law students, engeneers, PhDs, nurses, archetichets, etc helped me more than any classroom. the classroom stuff helped more to the point where i knew what i didn't want in life.
I never look at anyone as better than me now - i see everyone as an equal. living in residence did that.

I have a degree, and I can say that it helped get me more involved in the computer realm. I was a graphic design major, and that it how I got used to sitting on the computer for hours at a time.

I am glad that I got out of graphics however. College taught me that I actually HATE design.

mal

graduated earlier this year and i've already forgotten most of the shit i learned there and still owe them 100k. college

I never did go to college

I dropped college after 1.5 year, did not graduate and I'm sure I will become a millionaire one day or another.

The most important thing is that you learn by yourself. I was never interested in school... but I figured out after leaving school that I actually love learning USEFULL stuff.

School just try to make you think inside the box... like a sheep. With internet, you have all the tools. Just use your head and start thinking outside the box.

Ya college helped me....

And since that schooling put to much bullshit on the schedule, like chemistry
and screw-strength (no pun intended) I didn't always put tom much effort into it.

Yet, here I am.. considered a "computer-wiz" by the not so tech-savvy around me.

You become good at what You like, no matter if You learn it in school or by Yourself.
Fuck the school-system, to inflexible.

where are you taking that? smells a little ironic to me.

Yes it helped indirectly. I couldn't say "they taught me X and I went into the world and did X and became successful as a result", but in general, the critical thinking skills did help. It helps to organize, analyze, and decipher information, and doing that has allowed me to make better informed business decisions.

While it's not absolutely necessary for success, because we can all point to people with little or no education who are wealthy. We shouldn't forget that they are still the minority, and many of them came from the generation where there was less competition and anybody could attend college/university without having to pay enormous sums of money. The world is different now than it was then. It's expensive and very competitive.

The internet has allowed many young adults and many without formal education to become wealthy, but again, that's the minority and once you step offline, you're judged by those degrees that you have or don't have.

I remember being in highschool and disliking English class because I had to struggle in it. I used to think, why do we have to write essays? Why do we have to read so much? Why do we have to give presentations? Now I know. Because in the 'adult' world being able to write clearly (ex. write proposal, job application, website descriptions), to be able to read well (ex. legal documents, industry news), and to be able to speak about topics can and will work in your favor. If you submit a proposal, job application, or article full of spelling errors and grammatical errors, the readers will judge you and think that you're unprofessional (thank goodness for spellcheck and templates lol).

Some people can pick these things up as they go along and don't need formal training.

I think much of it has to do with the subjects you study as well. Beyond addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, you don't require any more mathematical skills for business. You don't need to know calculus, physics, geometry, algebra, or trig for business. Statistics can give you a better understanding of how numbers can be used to manipulate people (ex. 2 out of every 3 doctors recommends Tylonel - well, what kind of doctors are we talking about?).

Philosophy can give you a general perspective on life an you can choose which way you think is best to live. This will effect your decisions in life (ex. if you think all people are scum, you'll likely treat them that way. if you your philosophy is that people are good, but can turn bad thru life experiences, you may give people the benefit of the doubt).

Subjects like sociology and psychology can give you insight into how people and populations behave. For instance most people will do what they see others doing a culture because it's the normative behavior. For example, circumsicion is or was the norm in North America and even with imperical evidence showing it is not necessary, most will have their children circumcized. In other societies, it's females that have to endure it. On an individual basis, you'll find that most people will be behave similarly in a given situation depending on a number of factors. Under the instruction of an 'authority figure' such as a doctor, people will do all kinds of bizarre things they wouldn't agree to do on their own or under the instruction of somebody else.

History and politics are great subjects. Knowing why we're where we are now can give clues to where we're going or where we can go. What if you don't want to study wars? You can study business history. Find out how men like Rockefeller became wealthy. You'll find that the things that separated men like him from you and me isn't very much. Most business men are geniuses, but rather men who are guided by common sense, and many times they're cutthroat individuals whose morality comes into question.

One problem with college/university is that it needs to rely on memorizing work in order to test people's intelligence using tests. What happens is that many if not most students focus on memorizing work rather than being interested in what they're learning. There are probably just as many followers as their are leaders in college/university as their are in the outside world. For many, college is merely a stepping stone to a big paying job, so the process of being engaged in learning never takes place for them. In a business like online adult that gives you hands-on experience, you're engaged because you have to be. You certainly can't learn how to get around in the world by going to any school.

great post Mike33

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%.

College has helped me out to a point. I have only an AA degree in computer tech. It's come in handy when building or fixing computers, networking, and dealing with software issues.

The college I went to was a business school, so they were heavy on the English - we gave presentations every week. I questioned it at the time, but when I was chosen to speak in front of the president of Pac Bell (where I worked) and 100 other people I knew what to do - and I was on the fast track to management there.

In this industry things are a bit different. People with no business skills what so ever try to run a business and end up failing. You all know some of the failures.

The bottom line is this - When someone is looking to hire someone, they would pick a college grad over someone who never went to college. At the very least it shows that someone is able to make a long term committment and stick to it.
