Famous People that drop out of school

I have often thought, too, if I need school to get a good job. The answer I have always come up with is that though it is possible to get a job without an education, it is very improbable. It can also be very difficult to succeed. If Bill Gates dropped out of school, he didn't exactly get an easy job. Sure, he's a billionaire now, but he probably worked harder than anyone who would go to school to get where he is now. I would like it very much to succeed without having to go through years of university, but when I see so many others fail, I figure that a couple years of schooling couldn't hurt.
