“You need to go to college to be successful or you’ll be flipping burgers!”

So said teachers, parents, career counselors, etc. and here we are, I beat school, and no jobs. Should’ve become an electrician.

I couldn't even get the burger flipping job starting out. Rude.

Most of the most successful people never went to college. Steve Jobs, Oprah Winfrey, Simon Cowell...

Oprah Winfrey attended Tennessee State University and has a degree in communications
