Education is GREAT.
Is COLLEGE the best place for it, these days..?
I have my doubts.

This is an excellent article.
My advice to young people has always been to take any job you can get, and learn everything there is to know about it - Make Yourself Valuable, by being supremely knowledgeable and reliable.
My brother's advice has always been that '80 or 90 per cent of everything is whether people LIKE you and can trust you' - so the advice to always be positive and kind is very valuable.

Get a CDL and a job driving local delivery for a year or so. Then get on with a freight company driving a big rig for 60-80K a year. Then get your own rig and make 100K a year.
Any questions, snowflake?

A job can be taken...
But a TRADE cannot.
My best friend of 40 plus years quit school in 10th grade and went to work building decks at 16.
He started his own contracting company in 2005. At his peak. he had 12 employees and cleared almost a half million a year.
