Forbes 10 richest Americans

I am a huge support of higher education. However College is not for everyone. I have said that for years. I personally went to college but many of my family did not and they do very well in life.

Again I value education very much but if you look at the top 10 richest American you find that at least 50% dropped out of college. What this tells me is they were smart enough to make it to the University but probably had their heads in the clouds and wanted to go out into the world and make some money.

And good for them! Oh and by the way for the first time ever the top 400 Forbes list has only Billionaires…
