Most millionaires are elderly widows. Until the last 40 years or so college was for the elite in society. Even now most people don't go to college one third don't finish high school. Considering that most millionaires are older people I would expect more not to go to college. To be a high paid professional like a doctor, lawyer or accountant or dozens of others a degree is required. To be a business person a degree helps you if you studied business
If you are smart and driven to succeed you will find a way even if you don't have a chance to go to college. If you do have a chance and choose not to that might mean you aren't so driven or feel you can teach yourself what you need to know.
Any working stiff can become a millionaire but if you become a professional first it makes it much easier.

I believe it is true. There is one thing that my father told me when I was debating whether I should go to college or not. He said, "If you become the richest man in the world, you could loose your riches easily, but a college education cannot be lost even if you should go to prison." So, I ended up with 2 Bachelor degrees and I am worth a lot of money and knowledge. I have never spent a minute in jail.

There are A students and B students
"A" students are the physicians, scientists, professional who make great livings but works with set hours
"B" students are the Entrepeneurs like Mark Zuckerberg who is 22 and CEO of Facebook's who by the way just turned down a $1billion buy out. Einstein said best if I can get it right "Imagination is more important than intelligence!!"
PERSEVERANCE and SELF-MOTIVATION GO FAR but, education creates learning and learning creates experience

You won't find it anywhere...Some millionaires never went to college,but many did! Who told you most millionaire
never went to college???
I bet it's someone who never went to college and tries to bulls--- you into thinking it's not necessary because they never had the drive and determination to go to college and they're trying to justify that lack of drive and ambition by saying this.

despite what you see on TV, most people who are millionaires are just hardworking doctors, lawyers, and others who play the stocks as well as hold another job with 4-12 years of schooling after HS.
