Most people I know haven’t gone to prestigious schools and are doing very well for themselves (certainly not “mediocre” in terms of salaries).

I’ll admit it, I’ve gotten wrapped up in this prestige of programs myself, and the more I talk to adults with years of work experience, the more I think about how ridiculous all this nonsense is.

I know of college dropouts that have gone on to become billionaires. While often very entertaining and inspiring to hear about, exceptions don’t make the rule.
