Bill Gates was interviewed and directly asked if he would hire himself if he applied to microsoft. Gates said that although he would like to hire himself, or someone like himself, he would not, because, as a dropout, he would never make it past the HR department.
Cute, and irrelevant, particularly the Gates comment
Gates didnt think it was irrelevent. He was making a point that today it now takes more than what he had (and what he did not have - a degree).

That's not the point he was making.
If there's any point at all to hiis statement, it's that you can't blaze trails through well travelled ground!
