You will earn a six figure salary if you go to college & have a good education.

You will become their boss if you don't but are industrious. You will become their boss if you can become successful, which few people have, but if you do then you will reach dizzying heights. Be meek and learn from your peers & better offs, realise things without an ego etc

You will not be a parrot like the college types, think broad, think sucess (require funds), be Nice to people coz its your company / bizness not like most six figure salaried assh...les do .

1. Here is who belongs in college: the high-achieving student who is interested in learning for learning's sake, those who intend to become schoolteachers and those young people who seem certain to go on to advanced degrees in law, medicine, architecture and the like.

2. Here is who actually goes to college: everyone. That everyone includes the learning disabled and the fairly dumb, those who have trouble reading and writing and doing math, slackers who see college as an opportunity to major in Beers of the World, burned-out book jockeys and the just plain average student with not much interest in anything.

it would be very hard. I say this for two reasons. first, college helps your devlopment as a person in many ways; not only does college help your intellectual development, but it also improves your organizational skills, punctuality, and work ethic -- all of which are important to becoming "successful." So even if you did not want to pursue a professional career by virtue of the college track, you would still have you fundamental developments in college which will help you go off on your own and achieve success through entrepreunurship or other methods. Secondly, as mentioned before, college is a reliable road to success. If you look at the top ten most succesful professions -- at least in terms of salary- they all require some level of college coursework. In the end, college is by no means easy; however, if you want successful, its the easiest choice to make.

Do you have clue what you are interested in becoming successful at? You need to start with that. Then get an education about it. College is one way to get an education. It's not the only way. There's life. There are books. There are other successful people. Lots of ways. Sitting around doing nothing but dreaming will definitely make you successful at sitting around dreaming. Work hard and you can become successful!

What do you mean by ' become successful '? If you mean earning money - there are many ways . And most of them do not require knocking the college door. But remember , success comes only from hard work and in-depth knowledge of the subject - whatever field you may choose ! Also you need to be patient - no success comes overnight . So, going to college may not be a necessity but acquiring knowledge is all but essential to taste success in any field.

Start a successful business, get ahead in politics, or get famous. Each of these are extremely unlikely without an education, but I cannot say they don't happen as my father has a millionaire friend who did not go to college. But I would definitely not recommending skipping out on education.

Besides, why would you want to skip over your student life and become an "old working stiff" right away anyway?

If you are clever, industrious, and find the right niche, you can be very successful. There are plenty of rich, famous people that either didn't go to college at all or dropped out before graduating.

I went to a technical school and wish I'd have gone to a university, but I wasn't disciplined enough at the time and I wouldn't have done well. You can always go to college after you figure out what you really like and are good at.

College is not for everyone but you may need some type of courses to learn how to do things that you need to do for yourself. Continuing education courses may be an option for you instead of working toward a degree.

You have to define what you think sucessful means. Then develop a set of goals that you want to accomplish and decide what you need to do to achieve those goals. If you are able to do this, you should feel like you have been successful. Then develop new goals and start over.

This is a life long process, whether or not you go to college, you have to have some type of plan for your life instead of just drifing or just accepting whatever comes along.

There are several ways to be successful without going to college. You can go to a technical school, one geared to the work force. You can also join a trade and apprentice a field.

The reason for most people that forgo college is that they don't like the studious environment. They prefer a working environment.

start your own business. find out what you're passionate about and use that to make you successful. just remember you're only worth what you're able to do for others. that works in all facets of life. define success for yourself and work towards that. success without fulfilment is failure. you can have everything and not be happy. so make a decision on what you want to do, and find a way to make it happen.

i started a business and am very successful. my employees are all college grads, which makes me smile because they are working for far less than what i'm making and i never went to college. also, most of my friends are college grads and don't have any jobs. i'm only saying this because you can succeed at whatever you want if you are dedicated to finding a way

Its really hard to be successful without college because those chances rarely come (the opportunity is very very very rare) For most people, college is needed to be successful.
