We all know the stories, bill gates, Steve jobs, mark zuckerberg, etc...
To some they represented ambition, drive and great ideas, to others they represented self made, and all that term encompasses.
Granted they may have been natural geniuses and were opportunists at the right time. However than can come from self actualization, and school in particular, post secondary school I believe completely hinders that.
I'm 26, have 50+ saved in my bank, operate 2 businesses only 6 months of the year have no college degree, thus no debt either.
I chose to not finish school because I didn't want to be molded in a particular way of thought. Or coming to a solution by the same process taught to a million other students.
I know not everyone who dropped out makes it, I want to know success rate of those o NT. And perhaps what steps they have taken to ensure their future.
My biggest fault now is meeting a woman who I can marry...I ultimately want her to be educated but there is a problem since I have no degree.
I passed all the self doubt and constant insecure feeling of not being amongst my peers in society, and it feels wicked.
