"... U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao said workers with a bachelor's degree or higher average almost twice what workers with just a high school diploma earn weekly. Workers with a bachelor's degree or higher average $1,393 per week and have an unemployment rate of 2%, while workers with a high school diploma average $704 and have a 4.3% unemployment rate..."

I always feel the need to point out that if you can find someway to make a living doing something for yourself, rather than working for someone else, you will be much happier in most cases.
Also, take time to play with your kids, go fishing, do things with your family etc.
Enjoy the journey.

You can make lots of money if you are in demand. But lots more money can be made if you use other people. If you are a salesman and can get the customers, hiring people that can do the work for you puts money in your pocket. Lets just say you clean pools for a living, If you pay your employees $15 an hour and you can charge $20 an hour, making money is as simple as hiring more employees. Every employee that you hire adds $5.00 an hour to your pocket. You don’t have to do diddly squat.

In 2003,
Forbes reported that two thirds of the Forbes 400 had a degree and one third did not. The average net worth of those without a degree was $2.27 billion vs $2.13 billion for those with a degree.
Thus, the degree cost $140 million on average. I would chalk it up to opportunity cost, rather than exhorbitant college loan interest.
