University has always been a "vocation." Not everyone has that calling to go to university and study. I've met people in big business, millionaires, and they never set foot in college.
The big problem is that we've been taught that to be successful in life, you have to go to university.
I went to university, studied to be a math and physics teacher, and in the end, I'm not doing any of the things I studied. But I won't deny that it was a good time, and I learned the habits of studying and searching for information, etc., there. But I didn't really have that calling; I just went because it was what "had to be done at the time."
What I am now, I don't owe to university, but to being self-taught and learning on my own.
