That’s before I was born.
Yeah, figures people would be looked down upon for not going to college. The way I see it though, I equate the value of education to the places our legislators go. If the so-called “best” institutions of higher learning have been churning out Communists for so long, then what is the value of an Ivy League education, when so many stupid people come out of those universities? Better off going to a trade school, and having a job right after, so you can pay that off, while still putting something aside for yourself?
If it was me, anyway, my priority would be paying it off as soon as possible, instead of over a few years.
Very true, although a Harvard Law or Medical degree will still get your foot in the door of a better job more often than the SUNY degree that I got way back then.
One of the best deals going is go into the US Air Force and get them to train you to be an air traffic controller. Starting pay $75 to $90K with no debt.
