In India, parents and most children give top priority to education. However, what the world of tech entrepreneurs has taught us is that you always need not have the best of education to become a millionaire. There have been numerous examples in the field of technology where geeks have managed to develop something new and taken the world by storm.
The best examples are Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg who never finished their education and dropped out of the best universities to start their companies to make not just millions, but billions of dollars. Though education is very important in today’s world, here are 5 tech heads who are doing exceptionally well without a degree.
1. BILLGATES
One of the richest person in the world who didn't completed his graduation. He came at the age of 20 and established MICROSOFT a leading PC and OS brand. Till date the MICROSOFT is the leading PC in the world.
2. MARK ZUCKERBERG
If you have seen the movie The Social Network then you are familiar with what Mark Zuckerberg went through when he was in Harvard and made the biggest Social network in the form of Facebook. The billionaire dropped out of college at the age of 20.
3. STEVE JOBS
Dropping out at the age of 19, he made what Apple is today. Sadly cancer got the best of him, but that never stopped him to create the iPod and then the iPhone, till finally he gave up to the illness.
