I sure could have answered this one, only learnt about this question on here, today.

I went to and struggled in University from 2000 to 2007 and YouTube started in 2005. If it had existed 5 or 10 years prior, I might have never gone to University. Although, it was what my parents seemed to expect from me and I was the oldest son... There's one thing YouTube can't beat though and that is the social, real life contacts. Then again, did I really need University for that?

P.S. I have no regrets now. University sure taught me stuff but the question is, did it teach me the things that I needed / wanted to learn and did I really need all those years of struggle for that? I guess it was all meant as life lessons, to make me into the person that I am now.
