so it sounds like the tattoo artist cared more about you than your own parents because he didn't let you make a giant mistake
When I was 17 I went to get a Limp Bizkit tattoo and when they wouldn’t let me because I didn’t have a guardian’s approval, I cried and punched a lamp post. 3 months later I was allowed to take on $119,000 in loans to go to art school.

Parents did have anything to do with his student loan... He got that on his own when he turned 18. *explaining the joke*
-
...the joke is that the student loan industry preys on people too young to be able to make rational decisions that will have lifelong consequences.
-
... and a tattoo artist is more ethical than student loan predators.
-
Prob under more regulation and liability too!
-
Exactly. One’s not legal; the other is. And the part about crying and punching a lamppost gives an idea of the maturity level that should be taken into account for any life-altering decision.

The content of the tattoo was the big one

which one do you think would have brought more regret?
-
Lmao ZING
-
I’ll take the Limp Bizkit tattoo over the loan debt daily. Seriously.
-
I'd get that tattoo on my FACE today if someone would wipe out my student loan debt
-
Damn.
-
To not have every major decision I make tied to student loan payments, it would be more than worth it. Laser removal and makeup would be significantly cheaper lol
-
Exactly. We played a game with friends one night in what we would do to wipe out our student loan debt and it’s kinda sad how easily we can be bought.

Art school costs HOW MUCH over there? I mean I was 17 when I started my Biomed bachelor for $32k or so..but that’s a no interest, indexed only loan from the gov that only gets compulsory repayments over a certain income threshold
#notthepoint#butstill -
Colleges kind of charge whatever they feel like now. They know the student loans are guaranteed by the Goverment. Most kids are dumb and will take out the loans or won't go to a cheaper college for "reasons"pic.twitter.com/JsI7d3dkMn

Utterly insane. And we have politicians who voice support for a switch to the US system.
-
Well the politicians will either end up on the board of some fancy college or the board of one of the banks for a 6 figure salary. So of course they want to switch to the US system.

That is private or out of state tuition not in school state school
-
He asked what are school cost, most art schools are private schools.
-
Every public and private school I toured before going to college had an art degree. Idk why people wouldn’t just go to a public school, the education really isn’t different and I’m saving 15-20k a year
