Cute, and irrelevant, particularly the Gates comment. That must be the infamous liberal trickle up theory, where employees create the company, not the entrepreneur. My previous statement applies whether discussing Fortune 500 companies or small successful startups.

I can't imagine where you circle of info resides to come up with the all men skip college and no longer create businesses theory. Do you tall girls only hang out in bowling alleys?

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.

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).
