I completely disagree with what most of you have said.
If I continued study, I would be working in a boring white collar job, for a person/company that I hate, pushing paper around a desk and spending all of my time sitting on a computer..
Instead of this, I work for myself, doing something that did not require a college/uni degree, getting enough money to get me by, but a much more flexible lifestyle and freedom to do what I will. Money can't buy health, good company and a happy lifestyle. The only thing that you get for free in a high end job is less free time, more stress, and bad health.
If I continued my degree, I wouldn't be able to surf any morning I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to cook a nice meal for lunch, and lastly I wouldn't be able to wake up and say "I don't feel like doing anything today".
Value your time, value good company, value your health - and you will be much happier then any high paying job can give you.
