> dude no offense but going to college doesnt mean shit. I never went to college, my dad never went and he owns his own business, my grand father that passed never went and he owned his business and was a self made multi millionaire and one of my very good friends never went and makes over 200k a year at the moment…

I don’t think its a gamble, I think its more an insurance policy. Bachelors degree doesn’t guarantee you to be a millionaire but its nice to have.
