The OP said he has thought about going back multiple times. Obviously it has some value to him.

  ...and then decided against it every time, so obviously it has less value to him than other things he could be doing with his life.

    ...a life which is much, much more complicated after leaving school, serving in the military, having a career, starting a family, etc. If school has any value to you at all, the utility of finishing school vs dropping out is higher earlier in life than later. Maybe for some people it makes sense to drop out (Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg being canonical examples). But for most people the decision isn't so clear-cut, and going back becomes tremendously more difficult as time goes by.
