“College kills your entrepreneurial spirit and turns you into a worker bee”
August 10th, 2007 posted by JB under Bits & Pieces

This write-up maybe is worth a think.

Despite what your guidance counselor may tell you, college does not turn people into free thinking individuals who will someday have the whole world at their feet. It turns them into worker bees that will spend their lives in cubicles just so long as they get 2 weeks paid vacation time per year.

Right now, 6 of the 10 richest people in America are proud college dropouts. The other 4 inherited their wealth. Hell, Dakota Fanning has made more money than most people will make in a lifetime and she’s still in middle school.

We’ve all been indoctrinated into believing that a college education is our ticket to a happy, comfortable lifestyle. But, think about it for a second: how many college grads do you know personally who hate their jobs? How many are downtrodden? How many are on prozac? How many haven’t yet gotten the chance to regret their degrees because they can’t even get a job in their field?

you know, there are Pinoys here who never finished college back home, can’t speak a straight english, can’t even compose a formal letter in English (am not nanlalait ha) but because they are married to Koreans, teach ESL and earn more than I do. sad no?
