I am a firm believer that you should acquire the level of education that
best utilizes the capabilities you were born with and then make the most
of it. The world is full of examples of successful, contributing
members of society who don't have degrees from prestigious schools. In
fact, the networking and peer connections that Wayne speaks of is
probably why we have so many incompetents in high places.

Networking and peer connections work well when working with good, honest
people. Nobody who is competent and honest recommends the opposite.
Of course "birds of a feather" works both ways.
It's always a judgment call.
