Just learned that my parents are only paying for half of my college tuition and that i will likely be about 30 thousand dollars in debt by the end of college. Should i just drop out once my boomer parents stop paying or is college worth the debt? and if it is worth it, is there anyway that i could get out of paying back the debt jew?

>> No.15242354

Depends. Is it a fucking degenerate art or psychology degree? Then no.
Do you have direct connections to the industry or ability to sell yourself with some experience in the field at least?

Don’t go for a blanket degree or else you’ll end up working for $17 an hour for a job that is irrelevant to your interests.

Easy as shit and you’ll get almost free school. My parents only had 15k for me and I got through with only 10k debt going to one of my states more expensive public schools
If you can pass a piss test it’s a no brainer. For the army job, you’ll get a nice backup skill if you pick wisely; I’d recommend something like consturction

Do the first 2 years at a CC. Problem solved. Ya, I think a piss easy bachelors is better than none. You could always do some TESOL thing and teach from home and with experience, they make quite a bit an hr. Maybe try to become a teacher. That's the only reason I'm finishing my degree. Cush job. Nearly 4 months vacation. Etc.

Typical jobs? Holy shit, they SUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

you are FUCKED even with an associate's degree (unless it's in nursing in a metropolis city, dental hygienist, and a few others).

This job market is ASS. You NEED a bachelors at a minimum unfortunately.

Finance , it’s a risky degree though cause I got into investment banking. Would honestly put any finance majors chances of breaking into the industry at a 2-3% chance.

If you’re smart / good at math, engineering degrees from decent schools are basically a guaranteed minimum $75k first year out of college. You just need to NOT be a party animal and get a good GPA

STEM but companies hire assets not burdens. Acquire practical design/analysis/etc ASAP and get internships, from there it's easy as long as you work hard.

Medicine is a long hard road to money but you can make a ton eventually. I'm an EE so I doubt have advice on how to get into finance or law. Generally if you put in more effort than 90% of people around you opportunities will come.

I’ll just add that I graduated at 22, got a very high paying job partly due to my “veteran” minority status, and I’m getting out of the army national guard next week at the age of 24. My debts are low enough that I saved up 30k in one year and will be neeting in Asia until I produce passive income starting sept 1.

Also contrary to popular belief , $30k in low interest student loan debt is really a drop in the bucket IF you’re not a lazy bastard and get internships in your sophomore and junior year summers. If you do just that, you’ll be able to get a >$70k / year job and pay off the debt in maximum 2 years

you should just be a plumber or other tradesman. drop out of education right now and you can be earning 25/hr in 2-3 years. if you pursue an education you'll just drop out and waste your parents money after realising too late that you're a brainlet.

don't worry about it, link is not for you.
tradesman are in high demand in most western countries and you learn while you work. if you're good at computers, consider being an electrician as there is some overlap. electricians can earn around 70k after finishing the apprenticeship and if you make your own business 1m/year isn't unheard of although small companies normally turn over ~200k in profit with ~5 employees.
