No. What made you think this? Did you conduct any research at all?

Let me know how many of these guys have business degrees. Business is a kek degree that won't teach you anything you can't learn in a few weekends on Wikipedia or with some decent textbooks.

Business is just a general field that encompasses many things.

Most of them have Finance or Accounting degrees.

False. Go back and compile the stats. I'll be waiting.

No, the only way to even have a lottery's chance of success is to have millionaire parents. However if you just want to be a multimillionaire, then forget degerees and be an entrepreneur. This will mean jumping into things you are wildly unprepared for and unqualified at. As well as borrowing a bunch of money from friends and family for deals that probably will turn out bad for them. But if you keep at it, eventually after a couple decades, you have a small chance at those millions. Hooray! Don't forget to payback your ex for that loan, you really were the one who screwed up after all.

Sorry, that got a little personal. That's how most of us do it at least.

That's a bit of a narrow look at things considering OP will not be the head of such a company but whatever I'll take a look at the page you linked.

There was 25 people on the page, here's how many of them have one of those "Useless business meme degrees"(didn't include any that had other degrees).

George Soros - Studied at London School of Economics, Bachelors and Masters in Philosophy(le meme degree)

Warren Buffet - Bachelors of Business Administration, Masters of Economics

Jim Walton - Bachelors of Business Administration

S. Robson Walton - degree in Business Administration

Alice Walton - BA in Economics and Finance

Michael Bloomberg - Masters of Business Administration

Steve Ballmer - Applied mathematics and economics

Many of them dropped out or wasn't mentioned what major but it's still important tbqh.

Also a lot of the people in the list started Tech companies, so of course they had computer science degrees generally rather than Business degrees.

But still a considerable portion had Bachelors of Business Administration.

Is passively choosing a course of study for a few years putting you in a lottery for being a billionaire?

You're in the same boat as desperate schmucks buying PowerBall.

But hey, go for it. Play and win the PowerBall a few times. It's not literally impossible.

As a supply chain major who recently graduated. School has very little to do with the next 40 years of my life. I'm almost positive about that.

A business degree won't even guarantee you the slim, slim chance of becoming a future billionaire.

A business school curriculum, however, is going to teach you the "language of business and commerce". If you want to succeed in your own entrepreneurial venture, or advance in your own career, you need to understand what's going on around you.

When it comes to your job search, some employers will take more kindly to anything related to business studies. Why? Read the segment above.

Accounting, finance, economics, IST, or SCM degrees aren't worth much on their own, but the knowledge behind all of these are actually valuable. Keep that in mind.
