There is not enough room here for a complete answer to this kind of question, however let me say this. The more education you have, the more doors that will be open to you. Which door you choose may have an affect on the "return on investment"(ROI). Basically it will depend on the field, your qualifications, your energy, your creativity, how well you can sell your ideas, etc. A degree may open a door, however after that it is up to you. There is no guarantee for a positive ROI. Much of it may also depend on an individuals attitude. While some individuals in a specific field succeed at producing a positive ROI, others fail to do so even within the same field. Sometimes it's just knowledge and perseverance. In other words, what does it take to discourage you?

Yes- it is a very good investment if you make the most of the opportunity. If you go to college and goof off, it may be a total waste of money or a poor investment depending on how badly you mess up. Personally, I think a lower-priced state university is the best investment for undergraduate work because it gives the most return for the money. There are rewards for going to an expensive private college such as meeting people with rich and influential parents, but I think such rewards are usually not worth the cost.

It depends, but I would think that yes, almost always it is worth it. A college degree usually offers you more employment opportunities, and also the experiences and knowledge gained during a college experience is valuable in other ways such as personal growth, deciding on a career, the opportunity to meet a variety of people, exposure to diversity of personalities, races, beliefs, etc.

YES it is because education is the best legacy

Define and explain the concept of opportunity cost by giving suitable examples?

Opportunity Cost is the value of the time lost due to a decision one makes. For example, when Lebron James was in High School, he was faced with this decision: Do I skip college and go straight to the NBA? Or do I just go to college and get drafted to the NBA later? Here, Lebron made a good decision (in terms of money at least), to skip college and go straight to the NBA. If he had not, and decided to go to college, his opportunity cost for that decision would have been the $90 million so odd endorsement contract from Nike, as well as the value (for the duration that he would spend in college) of his Cleveland Cavaliers contract. In other words, Lebron's opportunity cost if he had stayed in college would be the money he would have missed out on by staying in college.
