Hum I'm pretty sure a lot of successful people did not drop out also ๐Ÿ˜›

Yeah, I don't think this meme is sending the message that its intending to send.

I think the message is being missed, it's a twist first of all. it's first pretending to be just in favor of dropping out of school, showing the big success stories of dropping out.

Then of course showing that since you don't have insane capital + luck + connections + an idea that happens to be right at the perfect time, if you drop out, you'll probably end up working a dead end crappy job if you drop out.

Then the twist, if you finish school, you'll probably also work a dead end crappy job anyway. your life is going to suck no matter what.

Least that's the message I interpret from it. I think the real point of it is, what you do doesn't really matter.
