Default Re: Why should I finish my college degree? (I really want you to tell

You should be going to college for more reasons than simply getting a job out of it.

If you're not, then obviously you would have found another reason to want to quit.

Don't be in a rush to start a career -- if someone offered you a nice job doing CS somewhere would/should you leave college? I'd say no because, while the short term might be good, it will only be to the detriment of the long haul.

Maybe you should play poker full time over the summer and see what you think. After a few consecutive weeks of however many hours you can see what you think. If you love it then take a break from school -- they'll let you back in within a certain amount of time, I assume. If it works out, then great. If not, go back to school humbled and, hopefully, motivated.

Life is long. Don't be in a rush to get it going.

Oh, and get away from the computer and bang some college chicks.
