Don't go to college. Stay home and mooch. If you need to, get a job picking up dog poop in the public parks.

Economically- your education level appears to be related to your income level. If you want to make more money, then chances are, you'll have to make yourself more marketable by picking up a few degrees. Unless you are Bill Gates, you'll probably need college.
Socially- college provides a different world for you to practice and learn how to communicate, effectively, with others. You are required to make public speeches, do things that make you nervous, and tolerate people you do not like. If you plan on ever interacting with a human or computer in the future, college can help you improve these interaction skills.
Culturally- did you know that race (ie. African Americans, Oriental, and Hispanic) does not actually exist? Scientifically speaking, there is NO way to group people together into races. It, literally, makes more sense to group people together based on ear wax composition. Now, imagine if THAT word got out: the world would change.
Networking- everyone you will ever need can be found at a single college: a lawyer, a doctor, a spouse, a babysitter, an electrician, a politician, a teacher, and even a police officer. They're all simply waiting to group up and take on those professions.
Think of all the discounts, advice, and help you can get just by making life-long friends with those folks.

It's like this.
There is no way in your life that you are going to be able to figure out all of the things that are the current start of the art in all of the fields that you will be exposed to in college.
In college, you learn in one semester, things that have taken thousands of years of mental effort to figure out.
And, you will be taught by people that actually understand them, and want to help you understand them.
Even if you are an ultra genius, your genius doesn't even come close to comparing with the genius of millions of very smart people that came before you.
Go to college, so that you may stand on the shoulders of the mental giants that came before you.
Either that, or go through life much more ignorant.
That's why I finally got by butt into college.
