You Don't Need No Stinkin' College Degree!!

Success without a college degree. It is possible and here are some people who accomplished it (at face value).

The irony is that the only nonwhite person (there was J-Lo, but that's a different topic) that they showcased is...wait for it...TRACY DAMN MORGAN. Yeah.

This is a reminder that A) if you're nonwhite, your best bet is to get the college degree so you can get a head start on a more leveled playing field; B) for everyone, the chances of success are greater with a college degree to avoid the basic probability of risking being a failure at life; and C) we don't know how many toilets these people had to scrub to be taken seriously, although white male privilege (among other privileges) often works without a college degree. But, most of us knew that already.
