RE: No, I'm not a college student. And here's why.
I think the question of college is not a simple one, depending on what you plan to study is going to tell you if it would be worth it or not. (that and of course the current job market) but there are definitely ways to make money without going the traditional college route
Hmm I agree with this, there are some professions for which it's better to go to college, but a lot for which it's not. and even for those, a lot of the kids who do go to that specific college end up there because of peer pressure, not desire, which is a shame..
right. peer pressure or outright misinformation. "oh college degrees help people make more money" yah if they can get hired.....the country does not need 100,000 people with degrees in public free bleeding arts....
chemical engineer? hell yes going to make money
the other thing is trade schools, they are looked down on but I'll tell you what no matter how much money you have you will certainly need a roofer at some point in your life if you want to stay dry when it rains etc
