When I was 18 I didn’t want to go to college. I was an idiot and didn’t reach this decision through reasoning. It just didn’t feel like a good move for me. Unbeknownst to me, we didn’t have the money and I and my parents were loading me up with student loan debt.

Other than that, it was pretty much a waste of 4 years and a lot of money. So for those contemplating it... You better think long and hard about whether you want to be a slave to those 4 years of drinking, partying, and cramming then forgetting crap that is mostly useless.

For relationships /connections: Business school > elementary > college All things equal.
