I didn't say not to stick with school. I just said to slow it down. At this point job > school if it's what he wants to do for a career. If this job is just a means to an end then that's different. I can tell you from experience that that college degree just gets your foot in the door. Once you are in and establish yourself in the job place, future employers don't give a flying flip about your degree. It's your job experience that matters. At least that's how it is in IT. A person with 10 yrs experience with no degree will get a job over someone with a Masters and no experience every time.

Personally I would pursue finishing the degree as a matter of pride.
