Opportunity cost of college education

Many college students have a doubt about staying in the college.

You think that college education is unnecessary, because the opportunity cost of staying a college is too expensive.

If so, which one company to invest on for the next three decades will make you give up college education? Do you think which company will replace the success of Berkshire Hathaway for the next three decades?
