Degree is way overrated. I’m not quite there yet but not sure it would matter other than just to say I did it - but there are over 125 people in my company earning over a mil a year and there’s no degree required. Plenty of us have them, but most have nothing relevance to what we do. My wife didn’t know a damn thing about my industry and in less than 8 years has taught herself and is so extraordinary at what she does (same company but not the same that I do. There are thousands of people who do her job at traditional banks and I think the medium income is 40-50k (maybe some earn 60k). My wife reached that mid second quarter. I am extremely proud. She never stepped foot in a university classroom not even community.
WHY would I want to bash Vince? I hope like hell that he makes a pile of money! I love seeing people succeed and it just doesn’t register to me why anyone would want to put others efforts down. My life is awesome and I want EVERYONE to do as well or WAY better than me. All I want to know is how they do it and what I can learn from them!
