To work your way through college you have to pull down about 20 hours a week at $25. For that you need skills. Welders, plumbers, electricians,and other trades can do that. A skilled carpenter can do that.
Of course, if you have those skills, who needs college?
“Of course, if you have those skills, who needs college?”
If you have those skills you need a mentor to show you how to start and run a business of your own, not a college degree.
