If your only objective is to make more money, don't go. Study after study has shown that wealth does NOT correlate with success in school.

I really would like to see those studies you are referring to. Everything I have heard says differently. For example, this article says that on average a person with a bachelor's degree will make about an extra
million dollars over the course of his lifetime than a person with just a high school diploma:

Yea, of course you have a greater chance of being insanely rich if you start your own business. But who the hell says you can't do that if you go to college? You could even start your own business
while in college like Steve Pavlina did. I'm sorry, but I think the people saying that avoiding university is the only path to financial success are just flat out wrong.
