I don't think Uni/College necessarily sucks, but with training tools, you have to use it wisely and consciously. Maybe 5% of all the Uni students really want to go and develop themselves and learn from professors etc, many(if not most) go there to either just get a degree, thinking this automatically gives them a high paying job or to get an experience(sex, drugs and rock&roll).

Uni is usually not a cheap thing so if you don't really know what you're doing, you might end up with a whole lot of debt. With way less money you could do some other things like travel the world(is it only me or is it becoming kind of a cliche?) - and also yourself - and I wouldn't say that it's any easier - there are no people around you pushing you to learn and do assignments and stuff - it must come from yourself. And afterwards, maybe you have a better ide of who you are and what do you want to do - maybe go to a University...
Completely agree with you here...

Champs in what discipline? If you're talking about bodybuilding and such things then I don't know any champs there, I don't follow that sport.
No gym = average or mediocre? I've seen quite a few people getting fit just by doing hard physical work, maybe they were mediocre compared to Arnie but should every person want to take over the world?
That taken out of context so it is non sequitur...

However... good post... congrat...
