College or where I am from university is definitely not for everyone. Mostly everyone I work with went to university and presumably have HECS debts (student loans) they need to pay off now they're working. I, on the other hand finished high school and taught myself a few programming languages, learned how to talk myself up and went and got a job. If I had kids and they wanted to drop out and teach themselves something, I would be all for it. Although we are moving to a different place, companies seem to have a growing fascination with degrees thinking they're relevant or important when the reality is you probably use 5% of the degree you just got $75,000 into debt for, if you're lucky. Dropping out isn't for everyone. Some people only learn when they're being taught and people like you and I teach ourselves and can get by on street smarts.
