- JMTQp8lwXL 7y agoA top university education isn't essential to becoming wealthy. Saving habits likely have more influence. You can go to Harvard, and then secure a well-paying job, but if you're going to spend your income on a penthouse in Manhattan, you're not going to be saving anything. Is it a leg up? Sure. I hate to use anecdotal evidence, but I went to a virtually no-name CS school, and ended up in the top ~5% of the income distribution 4 years after graduating.
