Gee, took me 7 years to get through. If I could only afford one course a semester, that’s all I took. No loans.

I went ten years to university, undergraduate and graduate and I never took out a loan. I guess it was dirt-cheap in my time and now things have changed but still...

Worked full time for the Sheriffs Office, contract pumped 22 wells and cleared fence-lines on my free time while putting my wife through school for here BSRN degree with no loans. When she went to work I quit the SO took on 20 more wells as a contract pumper and went back and forth to Odessa and Lubbock to finish my degree as a Petroleum Engineer, again with no loans. Hell I even built my first house without a loan, just did what we could as we could afford it, it wasn't fancy but it was paid for when it was finished. If you want something bad enough you'll find a way!
