Is college education worth it? Not only in Uzbekistan, but even in America?
In short, if you're not majoring in medicine, law, or engineering, you don't need a college. People are learning business from their broke professors. Like, what do you learn? Formulas? Calculus? Outdated charts? And you sucessfully get a "degree" for wasting your 4 years?
Diploma is also another topic. Nearly all jobs nowadays don't require diploma. They require experience and projects. If your future job doesn't require deep learning, like three majors I mentioned, you're asked for experience/projects, not a piece of paper. If you want to learn something, you find everything on the internet for free, or for a mere money.
How about TOP universities, like Harvard or Stanford? Alright, here is the thing: these universities are on the top not because they produce geniuses. They don't. They accept ready students. They accept students that are already genius. And they support them for 4 years. So, colleges are basically not for learning. There is one benefit, though - which is networking. You surely find like-minded friends for projects and startups. But you can also find the same geniuses outside in those four years.
If your ultimate goal is to be an expert in your field, university is important. But if you want to get rich, you never need it. Never. But there is another thing - family. If your parents want you to study in a college and you want to make them proud, university is a must, I believe.
Note: these are just my opinions. If you find some points to disagree, that's fine. Everybody has a different worldview)
