If we become knowledgeable and diligent because of the number of
days/hours we live, our brain will blow up.
Everyone needs some kind of experience and exposure to do something
well. Say, for example, to eat using fork, you need experience--but a
person who use fork for years cannot directly throw the food to his
stomach.

By attending a college, a person may no't become serious; you
can still attend college and still be a playboy---and similarly you can
be educated without attending the college. Sometime there are more
chances that the person who doesn't attend college will be more
rational and educated than one who do so as he is getting years of
repetitive blabby.
YMMV.
