Nevertheless, I'm very surprised in the positive way and find it extremely cool to hear all those degrees. All I can say is: wow! Extremely well done. Respect to all of you!

I think both of them matter, at least in some careers- of course real world experience matters a lot. 10% of the world billionaires drop out/never attended college though, so you're in good company .

(Like, a degree in medicine.. you can't get real world experience w/out a degree, and you shouldn't .... A degree in the culinary arts, well, I think that's kinda silly. They don't even have those in Venezuela.. but here in the US they have a degree for basically everything)
