People that go to college are in average brighter, harder working, more ambitious and for more affluante families and they are meant to make more money (as a group) than people that don't go to college

If you factor in the cost of going to college will you really make more money because of the diploma you will get?

Going a college is a reference, but i does not means you cna do everything.
Being a good human speaks more in real life.

One of the most important academic lessons I learned in college was figuring out how to figure out how to do things. College didn't teach me how to do everything, but it taught me how to go about learning how to do something I don't already know how to do. That lesson is priceless.

But you could have learned it in high school, at home and it is not worth tens of thousands per year; even if you didn't pay tens of thousands per year it costed tens of thousands per year

No, I couldn't have learned that in high school. High school is too low level--they're mostly concerned with teaching particular facts and concepts. The atmosphere is too constrained by particular curricula. You have to be given time and space to learn to think independently and figure out how to solve the problems you run into along the way.

Maybe you could have been given time and space in high school if the teaching was better and made differently; or you could have learned what you learned for a cheapest cost in college
