However until this world sees it differently they will matter. I have lost out on countless jobs because "the other guy had a degree" but no reference to my xx years of experience over them! Or I haven't even got to the interview because I don't have the magical piece of paper. I do what I do and I enjoy it - I'm not making shed loads of cash and I'm also not bragging about it.

I guess you can't predict success in life by grades and activities. It's like how they say that the world is run by 'C' students! That’s pretty funny.

You may be very successful in college or university, but what actually matters is how you handle life when you go beyond those college boundaries after your graduation.

I dropped out of college half-way, earlier this year, to pursue my entrepreneurial dreams. Now, everyone is graduating and making 30-40k/year thus beginning their long and predictable climb of the corporate latter. Like you, I, on the other hand, make WAY better money than they do while doing what I love. Cheers for entrepreneurial initiative! That is a feeling that really rings true with me.
