Did you notice that some of the most influential and the welathiest people in the world didn’t finish college. Bill Gates went to Harvard University and he dropped out. Now, in the present time, as you know, Bill Gates is the richest man in the world with net profit and assets of over $50 billion.

Sometimes I think some years of college is a total waste of time and money. In order for me to graduate my college forced me into taking a course, Theater 2040, that deals with theater materials. Theater materials such as watching movies, memorizing scenaries, and spending more money to theater plays to fulfill class requirements is a total waste.

Most people who already started their careers or have been with their careers for years will tell you that school education is little to nothing. Most of these people will tell you that the real education is when you are in the field itself. You will not learn until you get hands on in the working field.

So, when I say “Don’t Let School Get in the Way of your Education”, I mean that real education does not lie just in the institutions.

The reason I bring this up is that I realized that I wasted two years of my life preparing for a single exam, the MCAT (Medical College Admission Test). It took me about two years to take almost all of the pre-med courses and I will hardly use the pre-med materials in med-school, according to current and graduated med-school students.

I learned how to make money online not in school, but online itself; in the actual field. I’m not saying drop out of school, I’m strongly against that, but that school education is just preparation for the real education in life.
