Billionaire Dropouts

Probably one of the main things about people, who have dropped out of school, is the fact that you would not expect them to have gone on and built a mega business empire, but surprisingly some of the most popular household names have done just that.

In a recent survey of over a thousand billionaires around seventy-three have been known to have dropped out from some level of education, these include:

Sheldon Adelson
Michael Dell
Bill Gates
Steve Ballmer

So there is a lot going for dropping out, but only if you are able to get into a business or start up that is going places, now that is hard!
