Op post is wrong on so many levels.
2 more years until I graduate IEC and get my electrician journeymans card.
I paid NOTHING for school by the way.
I won.
People take electricity and how it works for granted.
You know how many weak folk would die without it?

College doesn’t cost that much if you don’t go to one that expensive, my debt was only 17k. Yeah a lot of schools are 20k a year but many are also 10, or 5, or even 3, or free with scholarships. I was in trade school to be an electrician but I didn’t feel comfortable with these Jacksonville cacs that loved cracking black jokes all the time and just throwing me out there without journeymen watching me and all the dust and dirt just destroying my lungs and nose. It’s not for everyone, gotta have a stern mindset. Most people don’t make it through apprenticeships but I appreciated the opportunity. Also they completely discounted the internships and work experience you can get in college. Way I can sum it up is, an apprenticeship has what you need laid out for you, you go along with the program, but college is entirely dependent on what you decide to do there (which could mean wasting your time, or profiting from it)

Smokin my Opps like Patrick Mahomes pops
It’s not al always that easy to get in, and college is a means to an end if you have a specific desire/dream, it’s like the people who scream I’m going to own my own business and so will my kids 
like your kids necessarily want to do that,

You don't have to take loans to go to college.
Plenty of people pay their way through.
Most people are just lazy and uneducated.
However....my nephew is going to trade school so I suppet whatever can lead to a stable and lucrative career

- don’t be an idiot and pay 22k a year for school. Go to CC for two years for under 10k, do the next 2 years at a state school for 10–12k a year (way less if you’re a halfway decent student and can get a scholarship).
- go for a useful degree and jr/sr year get a PAID internship. Make some money and get actual working experience
