Do you still think finishing a degree is important?  |
|
I read an article earlier this week about one very striking likeness in many of Forbes multimillionaires: they all dropped out of school. My question is this: given that such is the case, how much do you still value finishing a degree? Is it still important? Why do you think most of the world's richest man dropped out of college?

| 1. hlgwangwei (45) | 1 month ago | Hi,my friend,I think that in today's society,the ability is even more important,but the degree is also very important to some extent,the school culture is the persom who will learn,but it does not train capable people.I think the world's richest man give up their studies,perhaps they felt their studies hampered the development of their abilities.they seized the opportunity to make money.Opportunity usually determine one's life.

3. olepmis (389) | 1 month ago | Many are blessed being a dropped out of school because some of them have a talent in discovering the way to success. Some of them have the determination to get rich no matter what. They are not quitters and maybe that is their fate to be rich as we called it from rags to richest. Still getting an education is important because knowledge earned can't be lost unlike wealth or money. Richest man dropped out of college because they did not like to study, lazy in terms of routine school assignments, not bookworms, fed up in schooling, etc.
One of the presidents in our country was dropped out of school and yet he succeeded to become a leader.

| 6. anning (82) | 1 month ago | i did not read this book.in my view i finish my degree for enjoy the process not all for a certificate.Not everyone can become a millionaires. most of the world's richest man dropped out of college because the time they made their fortune did not need too much knowledge .they can learn what they want from the society by themselves but can we do that? i think the real millionaires must have superior than others or he will be in danger . at the same time the times have changed .the time we lived is different form the old ones .

8. scheng1 (1656) | 1 month ago | The question is not what those multibillionaires quit school or not. The question is whether they send their children to colleges. With the pace of life, every ten years is a different world. The world that allowed them to get rich without degree may change. The future billionaires may need more than a degree to succeed. So the point is, if the billionaires send their kids to college, then they are not confident that we can succeed without a degree.

9. buping (540) | 4 weeks ago | hi mynestegg, i think it is still important to finish a degree. as there are so many richest men dropped out of college, but it was a good time for them, there was so much things to be developed at that time, and the system was not complete. there are still some richest men in china that did not well educated. but time is different now, it needs more knowledge in this world to be succed.

| 10. Clicker625 (72) | 4 weeks ago | I still think a degree is important. Only a small percentage of us have the opportunities, focus and all the other attributes necessary to be a millionaire. A degree gives you opportunities that aren't available without one. For example, there were several times when I got a better paying and easier job than I would have without a degree.
I earned a bachelor's degree late in life and so I have something to compare. It was difficult to complete but I don't regret it. My quality of life was better after my degree than before.
