Do you need a high school diploma to do EVERYTHING?   email this discussion to a friend?

Firstly, I do have my h.s. diploma, but was told a while back there are certain things you don't need a diploma for. Yes, you do need one to get into a good college, and yes, you do need one to get a good job. But one of my dad's friends has his own company, its a landscaping company I believe, and he never graduated from high school. I have heard of people earning success who never finished high school; but it doesn't happen for everyone.
What do you think? Do you need a diploma for everything you do in life?

To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure you do. I do have a high school diploma, but have never been asked to show it. I think it boils down to what it is you want to do, how well you can perform the desired role, and lastly, I think it has to do with who you know. I hear stories all the time about people who are the top of their field, yet didn't complete more than tenth or eleventh grade. It isn't unheard of, but I would think it would be a much harder road to follow.

Not everything, I do not believe. But that is slowly changing. Lots of requirements of even the most petty jobs seem that you need to have either some trade skill or a high school diploma (which isnt always apart of trade skills). You can have success without getting one, but the chances are lower than succeeding with one...you need to make wise and steadfast decisions ya know.

Heck, even McDonalds requires you be in high school or have had a diploma or GED.
