Is college really nessacary?
I realize college nowadays is a must have, but I think college is a big rip off. I think this becouse for a top tier school it's over 50k that's just tuition ( I realize there are big scholarships also) I don't think it is smart starting off your life with possibly over 100k in debt. Especially in finance which is probably the most competitive major. I know someone who went to Wharton and someone who never went to college and the one who never went is very very well off. So what I'm trying to say do you think you need to go to college if you love finance, take it seriously, and work hard
This is what a 500 writing score looks like.

Why are there school? is there point 2 it. currently 22 and college is stupid loll
It's a case by case decision. "Finance" is a pretty broad area of interest. It doesn't take a degree to be a day trader but you absolutely have to have one to work at GS.
Solid post. Let me know when you get that job at Goldman without a degree.
See, there are lot a of people who make it big even without a college degree and college degree is not a requirement for a successful life. It is just that college equips you with two things: skills and network. If you can build both of these by yourself, you are good to go.
OP, excellent idea! Let me know how finance recruiting goes from your mom's basement!
This kid is a troll. He also posted on the Hedge Fund forum.
How am I a troll? I can't ask a couple of questions that I've bin curious about
You don't need a degree to be successful in life, but you certainly need one to be successful in pretty much every thing else.
Don't feed the trolls.
I don't get how I'm a troll? It was just a question I didn't mean to offend anybody
You make it so obvious dude that it's not even funny
If you plan on starting a business, maybe not. As far as a job and building wealth, unless you don't mind blue collar and working 5-10 years to get to 6 figures. You could also be a very good tech guy. Other than that you need college. Imo
