Bud I totally agree!
My dad is a smart guy and taught me more about life that I think your average 40 year old today has. I'm not saying I know everything, but I do seem to impress a lot of people around me.
I also firmly believe that College/University isn't everything, it's more who you know and how you network that will get you through life. Sure Engineers/Doctors etc. need this schooling because they are in sometimes "Critical" fields that require it but I think it's more of a business than anything else. I remember when I was going through the system and all the hoopla courses I had to take along with the core "actually learning something" courses.
