In reality... very little. Plenty of broke people who went to Harvard. Plenty of rich high school drop outs.

I may or may not be the best person to answer this question. I went to a college that I loved. It was an intellectually stimulating (though not oppressively challenging) environment wherein I could be successful. Now, I'm in grad school and hating the fact that my liberal arts education didn't enable me to have a more clear-cut, financially secure career path. I think college can be personally enriching, but don't expect immediate financial returns, especially within the first few years after graduation.

It's not. You need to pick a degree you can actually do something with, it doesn't matter what school you went to. Plus, different schools are ranked differently for each subject they issue a degree in. People who go to Ivy League schools will usually be recognized first, because they are hard to get into. This makes an employer assume (rightfully), that you are a smart person who can get your stuff done, since you were able to even get in.

Not important.... Your good life after wards is simply up to YOU. Your school will have no bearing. If you pay high tuition costs at an ivy league school and did nothing but screw off well the school has no responsibility in that.
Its all about YOU YOU YOU. Make it a good one.

Any education is like a hammer... It's absolutely worthless without a nail to drive in and even more so in the hands of a lazy carpenter.....
The only reason you are not a millionaire is because you chose not to be
