There have been several reports on the best college to attend for various reasons, from Wall St jobs to partying. Today Forbes.com posted a list of which colleges generated more billionaires. Here are the top 5 graduate billionaire generators.

#1 - Harvard with 54 billionaires  (5% of the world's billionaires)

#2 - Stanford with 25 billionaires

#3 - Univ of Pennsylvania with 18 billionaires

#4 (tie) - Columbia and Yale with 16 billionaires each

Some 10% of Forbes 400 Billionaires last year didn't have a college degree.  So I guess Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg count in that group since they attended Harvard but didn't graduate.
