It Costs Over $10 Million in Opportunity Cost to Go to College
#7
I ran some numbers to find the break-even point for a non-college grad.

If you take 30 AP/CLEP credits and complete only 3 years of on-campus college with $30,000 of debt (including interest), you will have $3 million by the time you are 65 years old. 

Considering that you earn $1 million more than a high school graduate, you will end up with the same amount.
