Amen! I recently told my cousin’s kid not to go to college and get into a trade. If the women don’t find ya handsome, at least they’ll find you handy. Plus, you’ll have money and women love that too :-)

Megadittoes. Dennis Prager just had an excellent segment on his show about this. Employers driving the student debt crisis for insisting on a bachelors degree with no good reason.

Falling prey to propaganda from the Educrat Establishment that these people pop out of universities fully trained at no cost to them.

It’s true. I am a maintenance superintendent who makes a six figure salary. I have SEVERAL hourly employees who make more than I do. They kill themselves on overtime, but they do make a ton of money. Mechanics, electricians and electronic technicians are worth their weight in gold!!!

I have worked at a community college for 20+ yrs. and tell any relatives asking about careers and majors, while in college learn a trade like HVAC, plumbing, trucking, medical field, there is money to be made and careers to be had.

Don’t borrow anymore money than you have too and don’t graduate with a BA in psychology or theater you will be unemployed for a while in your field, maybe forever but Uncle Sam will still require his student loans to be paid, well at least for now.
