Thumbs up OT: College Educated or Not?

In this day and age, people say you need a college degree to land a good job...
Are you college educated? What's been your experience?

I'm not college educated technically at the moment.
I have my series licenses for financial gains, however I'm looking to own a business. As long as you want to be a business owner and are savy College is a maybe, however if you want a good salaried job I would say College is a must!
