I met someone a couple weeks ago who’s son has a PhD in Physics and works at a nursing home.
He enjoys that and starts med school in the fall.
Wow, the bills must be insane.
Of our four kids, two have associates degrees and are working. One of them is continuing at an online school. She wants to be a proofreader/editor and is actively pursuing any sort of work possible at several publishers where she lives.
The other is at B&N
Number three is going to graduate as an aerospace engineer in the spring. He’s managed to keep his debt load pretty manageable. I think it’s under $45,000 so far. He has a college job in his field that offers education reimbursement.
Number four just graduated high school and is planning a career in the skilled trades. He’s pretty much full time at Chick Fil A right now. He wants to volunteer all next summer at a Christian camp so he’s not starting any apprenticeship until after that.
You can be a CNA in six weeks and work in a nursing home.
We have one in the military, one graduated from college (the ex-deli guy), three in community college, and five still at home. No debt!
