Degrees are much more valuable. You can only do it when you are 20 and it's for life!

First of all, the most value of a degree is to give you your first internships and first job. It's the hardest to find, try to do that on your own to understand your pain.

There are endless jobs that will require you to have a degree or will give you the priority because you have one: defense company, Wall Street, any classic entreprisey.

Outside of SF/SV you don't get jobs by saying you've dropped out of high school cuz degrees are stupid cuz reddit said so.
