These Billionaires Never Finished College

Bill Gates

Bill Gates is an awfully kind soul. You read it earlier how Gates was forced to drop out by his long time buddy Paul Allen and the rest is history as the duo went on to create the largest software business. There is no secret that Gates knows computers as he was debugging corporate software while still in preparatory school.

Those smarts got him far as his net worth is estimated at $58 billion dollars! He is very giving, though, as far as philanthropy goes, and he has an amazing scholarship program for college students. It’s funny that he sponsors kids to go college, which he quiet. But he knows that his story is a rare one.

Dean Kamen

Dean Kamen can be thanked for many things but we’re sure he wants to thank himself for dropping out of Worcester Polytechnic Institute. He is the man responsible for the invention of the segway. You know, that annoying thing that mall cops ride on all day to get on your nerves. He also came up with the AutoSyringe and iBOT robotic wheelchair.

His net worth is unknown but it is estimated somewhere in the billions, of course. The guy has his own island near Connecticut that creates its own energy from the wind. He has two helicopters that he chooses between each day he goes to work. The man is on another level.
