Enjoy Norway as much as you can to get a good degree paid by your oil. Really, you should definitely get a degree because it is opening way more doors than what you can imagine. If you are so good, it means you also have time on the side to develop your ideas/projects. Enjoy it. Also, the best companies can hire the best people, if you have to compete against someone as good as you but he/she has a PhD, sorry to tell you, they will not pick you. Google is mainly hiring PhDs for example.

You are lucky to be able to get an education, lucky to be able to get it while having time and money to develop things on the side, lucky to build yourself a good network at the same time, lucky to do have all the doors open in front of you. Enjoy it now.

I created a company while getting my Master degree, then got a PhD and created a company afterwards. The network I was able to build within an insane number of companies while getting my PhD is so good that I can work for a lot of money 2 months in a year and develop my products the next 10 months without the need to worry about being ramen profitable too fast. I can do the right thing and companies are now ready to pay even more.

A degree is way more than a piece of paper or a line in your CV if you use all what is given to you. It will be an asset worth way more than money when you will try to get a job or creating your company.

Note for US citizens, in Norway education is not only free but you are paid to study.
