year off and/or college dropouts

[Green Kool Aid]

Dear OOT,

I am a college sophomore at a pretty good university, but I don't like school at all anymore. I take easy classes and get Bs skipping a lot of classes. I am basically blowing a ton of my parents' money (which I don't like). I wanted to transfer to the local state school but my parents/advisor convinced me to take a year off instead. I plan to get a full-time job the next year while living at an apartment with some of my friends from my current college, also playing some poker on the side.

My question is, of you who took a year off, did you come back? If so, were you more productive afterwards? Other dropotus...I'm interested to hear your reasoning for doing so. I know there a lot of very successful people who don't have college degrees. I just don't see myself wanting to get a degree for any time soon. I'm technically a Philosophy major FWIW.

Also...Any reccomendations for full-time jobs I should look for would be great.

Thanks in advance.
