The words of Robert Frost come to my mind.

> I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

I applaud those who chose not to go to college, instead opting to learn and grow independently. Its not for everyone, but when its the right choice for some, it can make live tremendously better.

It's not for everyone, if only "to learn" is your goal then it's the appropriate path. I know, I've walked down it too. I'm not famous, or rich, but I am fulfilled more than... than words can describe. "Complete" fits nicely I think.

Education is a big industry. I wish I knew this when I was at school.
