I'll say this, I believe I even made a thread about it before. The job I have now I started at 20.. guys in my shop easily make $80k a year. (I don't cause I cannot stand Overtime) I had the mentality of I don't NEED a degree because I was pursuing entrepreneurship plus my job is well paying and stable.

School is probably a waste of time for some people, but for a lot it cannot hurt. To have something to fall back on when things don't go as planned provides a good cushion. Even if you don't know what you want to do in life, there are state colleges where you can take 1 or 2 classes a semester without paying an arm and a leg.
