yeah these stories about young school dropout millionaires (most of them are somehow related with computer and internet business) sells an illusion, that the cause of getting rich quickly is to dropout of school, there will be only one in a thousand lucky ones, it's like lottery, but we should not see them as an example, because that's not gonna work most of the time, and also there is no one way of getting rich, that's why we still don't know one working for all method of it. @jrcornel noted this point, I am just underlining that.
The other point is, we should be careful when some people say that bitcoin is going to be 10k, 100k. These people has invested on it, and they just want it to be 10k, 100k because they want to increase value of their investments.
Bingo. They are partly hoping they might be able to talk it into reality. For my sake, I hope they do ;)
I remember an episode of Two And A Half Men. Kutchner was already in the show and mentioned how he dropped out of school and became an Internet millionaire. Then Jake Harper told his dad (Alan Harper), "See? I don't need to go to school. I can drop out and become a millionaire too!" to which his father replied "No, in your case you REALLY need to go to school!" or something along those lines. :D
Well, thats for the characters they represented in the show. Now, the actors in real life...
