Nah, I'm in uni at 29. I lie about my age to everyone though.

>>9085285
I was actually going to do my degree online through a state university. I already have a house and I'm married so living in a dorm wouldn't be an option for me, and the commute is nearly two hours.

It's not like a Kaplan or DeVry degree though, it's from the actual institution, they just allow certain degrees to be done online.

>>9085285
What's your uni age?

>>9085278
you're gonna wagecuck anyway if you go to university so think about it carefully

>>9085303
23. I just change 1988 to 1994.
>>9085301
Go for it then.

>>9085342
Well if I go back to university I'm definitely doing a degree in accounting and sitting for the CPA. Isn't there the possibility of working for myself someday with that sort of skillset?

>>9085278
If you're going for a technical degree, nobody cares

If you're going for something stupid in arts then yeah you're a faggot.

I am applying for financial management masters age 23. Before that I did tourism management bachelor's. Am I going to make it?

>>9085350
Nobody likes you when you're 23 and you still act like you're in freshman year.

>>9085384
Yeah I was a jobless NEET till I was 27 and went back to uni, I'm awkward and can't interact with people. I'm not here to make friends, it's just better than being homeless. I don't really interact with pepole much unless I have to for class or my roommates, and if age ever comes up I just say 23 because 29 is humiliating especially when someone 29 still has no self-confidence or social skills. Even 23 surprises people because I look/dress like a teenager.

>>9085301
what uni? need in on that scam.

>>9085402
Are you saying you never want to act your age?

>>9085278
no.

>>9085353
I would say find something that suits you that doesn't feel like work and make money from it. If that's your best bet go for it

>>9085413
It's not a scam. Most state universities nowadays offer at least a couple of online degrees. Just go on any state uni's website and look at the "online programs" tab or whatever they call it. Some schools refer to it as "distance learning," and all that good stuff.

>>9085419
I want to but I can't. I can't keep eye contact or hold a conversation. Growing up in an abusive narcissistic family and essentially spending the entirety of my 20s in solitary confinement has permanently fucked me up. I am trying to become a normie and "grow up" and I'm definitely much better than I was 2 years ago, but I'm still socially stunted and broken from my terrible childhood. I would like to just be a NEET for the rest of my life but I don' thave that luxury.

>>9085438
How are you going to support yourself while studying? Part-time job or a loan?

>>9085433
I just want something productive, safe, and stable. I'm a book keeper at the moment and do some forex and day trading on the side. I'm tired of earning peanuts and feel like going the next step would be beneficial for myself and my family.

I honestly don't mind working with money and finances (I actually quite like it), but as a book keeper there is no upward movement and little room for the idea of owning your own business someday.

>>9085476
I literally live off loans and financial aid. I was homeless before this, lived in my car for 9 months when i finally reached tipping point and left my family.

>>9085278

if u live in EU its the best idea

>>9085476
I'm assuming you meant to ask me, the OP.

My wife just became an ultrasound technician and started at nearly double what I make, working at the hospital. She's supportive of the idea of me getting a degree, so long as it's something productive and fruitful for us and not something dumb like art or theater.

>>9085490
I'm glad you're taking steps to get it together, many don't have the courage. Do what you must and eventually you'll get used to it.

I guess this is growing up.

>>9085593
Hopefully I make it with crypto. I bought bitcoin in 2015.

>>9085607
How many do you have? I can't imagine much because of all the trouble you had, no? What's your selling price to make at least enough to undo all the damage and live a comfortable upper middle class life?

>>9085437
how do they do tests and stuff?

>>9085659
I don't know what the selling price should be. I started trading some alts in 2017 but mostly just held. I started with $1500 in 2015, was literally leftover pell grant that I never spent. I've added small amounts in 2017 and 2018 from financial aid I got. I have around 7 BTC in crypto, only 3.4 in actualy BTC right now. Not sure if I should hope for another BTC bullrun or just dump the rest into alts.

>>9085694
Timed and taken online for some. The state university I plan on attending does video lectures and testing at a local community college campus.

>>9085278
It depends on
A) Your job
B) Your major
C) How you will pay for it

I did, zero.regreats OP. Engineering is hard but worth it.

>>9085438
>>9085490
You're tough as nails OP, best of luck to you.

>>9085659
Yo what's your age again if you don't mind my asking?

my dude, just starting uni aswell after summer. 28y oldfag here. defo one of the oldest but chicks love my wisdom awwww yisssss

srsly like all the chicks are between 19 and 25.. feel like paradise. even better as my lowcuck bartender years (it was fun tho but you are not making a living, so a deegree makes you even more attractive to money and girls)

good choice, dont fall for wagecuck memeing if you have access to education. enjoy the years bruh.

>>9085278
Not if doing so would mean you get a better job once would graduate, no

>>9086864
What's my age again?
>What's my age again?

23

No. If you're passionate about what you want to do and it's not a meme tier major then do it now. I worked an okay job but went back to become an electrical engineer which was what I always wanted to do. I'm really glad I did.
