Don't confuse a symptom for a cause. If going to college would have helped the 20%, they would have gone to go to college. Similarly, if it would have helped to skip college, the 80% would have had no qualms about doing so. The cause here is the motivation and skill of a winner that every self-made billionaire has. You're glorifying a symptom by idolizing dropping out of college.
