So what are you doing now since you arent in college? I dont really see a good alternative for not going to college for most people. Im not saying to get yourself in 100k debt but 20k of student loan debt isnt THAT bad if you go to college for a good major. That is basically a car. Most people who graduate should be able to pay back 20k. But there are a lot of people who are in college now that shouldnt be in college.Originally Posted by AirForce1King
This is why I didn't go to college (graduated in '04). My sister graduated high school in '95. She owed like $20K in loans or something like that. Had 2 kids and was NOT allowed to finish her last year for whatever reason. I remember they began garnishing her paychecks in like '04. They were taking something like $150 out of each paycheck or something like that. And they yanked her for her $6700 tax return. I made up my mind then that school was NOT for me if I could not get in free.
On one hand, I made a wise decision because I am living comfortably, make pretty good money, and am debt free. However, I'll be picking up a CNC trade come fall. I'm too smart to NOT be using my brain...
