Yes. I graduated from an Ivy League school. I've already paid back close to 100k in student loans for me and my wife. I still had no idea what I was doing with my life on the day I graduated from college. I would make the same choice again.

What happens is that many students, after paying out almost 100k or more, realize that their life's calling has nothing to do with the education they just spent all that money purchasing. Yeah, everyone acts like you can't amount anything without higher education. Bull. Some people are better off without it and going to college litterally puts them 4 years and tens of thousands of dollars behind the game. So it worked for you. Whoopie. Not everyone is like you. Telling someone to make that large of a purchase without a plan is just bad advice.

Telling an 18 year old that he should have a plan is bad advice. I also think that telling someone that they should view college as job training is bad advice.
