Bill dropped out of Harvard to prevent Harvard from seizing his patents. He then was supported by his upper middle class millionaire parents until Microsoft took off. This was also in the 70s so unless you have a breakthrough AI patent you will likely end up working a dead end job making 84% less than your peers.
Now if you want to find a trade I STRONGLY suggest asking around to find someone to job shadow to make sure you don’t end up quitting halfway through trade school. A degree will open up several opportunities, but leaving a degree without a legitimate plan to advance your education and technical training is setting yourself up for a life of misery
