The same applies to all successful entrepreneurs and business people. The people that he had met and the things he had done had shaped him into the person he was today: a man who works maybe 3hours a week and doesn't worry about a thing.
Good insight, but you can also look the other way:
Who knows how many of the people that went to college would have started a successful business if they didn't? The boredom and routine of standardized education, shaped them into work-slaves and made them who they are today: employees.

I don't get it, the guy says colleges are failing yet he says Elon Musk wouldn't be as smart if he hadn't gone to college.
Being in school myself
When people give me that bewildered look of "You don't go to school?!?!"
"Saying college is the thirteenth grade is an insult to the thirteenth grade. College is actually more like re-taking ninth grade and paying attention." -Unknown
Sorry. Let me clarify. I've been on and off of school for about a year and a half. Seeing that I've done all that I can at a city college and basically waiting to commit to a 4yr, the only classes I take at this point in my life are for more along the lines of having fun. None of my classes are going to follow me if I transfer to a 4yr, so when people ask me what 4yr I go to and I tell them I'm kind of on idle waiting to see what I want to do with my life, THAT is when they give me that bewildered look. Like I'm doing nothing but wasting my time... Sorry; I should have elaboratedI'm confused...
You're right. I thought the quote was funny and somewhat relevant so I posted it.That's kind of an unfair statement, because the same could be said about high school, being perhaps a repeat of 5th-8th grade, in more detail. Every grade builds on the last in more detail. But that's a drastic oversimplification overall.
