I met a young man who opted to not go to college (and not going to the CWS one year) and instead take "life changing money". Recently retired from baseball with a new wife and baby, his choices for college were Harvard, Penn, or William & Mary. He had a pretty good "hook" to get in lol, but he must have been (and still) incredibly smart.
I know one who skipped college, got what some on here would consider life changing money, runs a small travel program....college isn't for everyone but then again life wins aren't either. it seems to me if you aren't getting more then 2m signing bonus go to school.
