Education doesn't have anything to do with how much money a person can make. Experience, Perseverence, and Character do.
*chuckle* My 28yo son, a high school dropout, makes $75,000 a year. Doesn't keep me from encouraging my current teens that their chances are better with a degree. Education can have something to do with how much money a person can make.

However, I do agree that perseverance and character have much more to do with success than high intelligence. I believe my daughters will have much more success than someone else they and I know :-( .
