Interesting resource, thanks!
Is it reasonable, though, to assume that these people were successful because they dropped out? I imagine we could come up with a couple more lists, one of people who were successful and graduated from college, and another of people who were unsuccessful and dropped out.
- adventured 13y agoI think what it specifically means is that you can be very successful without college, that the lack of it isn't an inherently limiting factor. Not that they were successful due to the lack of it.
- jessedhillon 13y agoIt means that some people can be successful thus. Some people also win the lottery. For the rest of us, it's wise to have a backup plan that offers some mitigation of downside risk.
