I always find the "Well, X person dropped out, and now he's a millionaire," argument hilarious. Most of the successful people who quit school left, because they had some project that was catching on that was taking too much of their time and was worth more than going to school. They were also pretty smart, as well. Zuckerberg was in Harvard when he launched Facebook, then quit when it was catching on. Gates dropped out to work for Honeywell, worked on a project, then founded Microsoft a year later. Granted, Jobs did just leave to travel India. People always use them as reasons for why they should drop out. "Look at these guys! They dropped out of school and now they're, like, the richest people in America!" Well, most of those guys that quit school had a worthwhile alternative. You're working at Wendy's and playing Call of Duty in your free time.
