    I'm not a drop-out, but I think, depending on what you do, college isn't always the way to get a good job. I went to GA Tech, GSU, College at Boca Raton, and finally Dekalb Tech where I graduated with a degree in computer operations. I used that degree for 9 months and haven't in the past 14 years. Where I work at now, I can make $52,000/year without a degree and only working about 25-30 hours/week. Not bad. So if you get a job that pays well for your survival and you're happy, then it's not a bad deal at all to not go to college. Later, QD.
