I met some very cheap educated people and some very outstanding poor people
Education does not make you a human being - your upbringing does.

Nor education, not upbringing makes you who you are just by itself. There are many pieces of a puzzle of a personality. Relying on that one part of this puzzle will give you what you want if you'll ignore other parts is not so wise. Of course some people can succeed with this strategy but majority can't. Of course each of us sees ourselves as outstanding persons, but we are still can be imagines as a statistical probability. And getting education makes us statistically more competitive. It can be embodied or not but losing an opportunity to become a better version of self just because we think we are already wonderful... well, I don't think it's a right choice.

I was after degree all the time - but now I realise I am an artist and I need to learn some skills.
Have I been smart enough to learn skills earlier in my life I would have been more successful
