5 years into 4 year school and I'm supposed to quit?

2019-08-28 02:21:57 UTC  

Okay, so get this degree

2019-08-28 02:22:01 UTC  

then go to trade school.

2019-08-28 02:22:09 UTC  

Takes 1.5 years to learn a trade

2019-08-28 02:22:11 UTC  

sometimes 6 months.

2019-08-28 02:22:11 UTC  

So I can get even more debt?

2019-08-28 02:22:13 UTC  

Depends on the trade.

2019-08-28 02:22:14 UTC  

Dude

2019-08-28 02:22:21 UTC  

Tech school costs like 5k

2019-08-28 02:22:24 UTC  

and is in super high demand.

2019-08-28 02:22:32 UTC  

A lot of trades sponsor your apprenticeship

2019-08-28 02:23:12 UTC  

I was offered like 5 scholarships straight out of high school ( a few of those were for being in foster care though.) I don't know about your state, but Tennessee loves tech school.

2019-08-28 02:23:20 UTC  

I can't think of a single trade, or career in general that interests me

2019-08-28 02:23:39 UTC  

Draw something out of a hat lol

2019-08-28 02:23:51 UTC  

I literally randomly chose hvac, knowing NOTHING about it.

2019-08-28 02:23:59 UTC  

I didn't even know the proper names for tools.

2019-08-28 02:24:06 UTC  

I the love the trade.

2019-08-28 02:24:10 UTC  

You honestly just have to take a stab at things to find what your passionate about. It's obviously not finance

2019-08-28 02:24:11 UTC  

Gt3 I told you I was in the same boat. 5 years into a conventional college and 30k in debt

2019-08-28 02:24:26 UTC  

Left and learned a trade. Manufacturing. Paid my debt in 2 years

2019-08-28 02:24:30 UTC  

@crustyoreo I wish I was only 30k in debt

2019-08-28 02:24:51 UTC  

Yeah I busted my ass and lived like a pauper but there was light at the end of the tunnel

2019-08-28 02:26:01 UTC  

There is no light at the end of my tunnel. Everything I do fucks me over somehow.

2019-08-28 02:26:04 UTC  

In five years I paid the debt, bought the house, bought my weekend car, a 911 and bought my daily driver a newer golf all cash. Only debt is my mortgage

2019-08-28 02:26:46 UTC  

Hard work pays off.

2019-08-28 02:26:52 UTC  

Bought and tinker with motorcycles during the winter in the garage. Keeps me sane

2019-08-28 02:27:03 UTC  

My hard work has never lead to any benefit to myself.

2019-08-28 02:27:12 UTC  

Work hard in the gym? No muscle gain

2019-08-28 02:27:18 UTC  

Another note, when I bought the house I was supposed to be happy. I wasn't. I felt like you do. Not suicidal but if it ended I'd be fine w it.

2019-08-28 02:27:18 UTC  

Work hard in school? Grades slip

2019-08-28 02:27:22 UTC  

So I got a dog

2019-08-28 02:27:22 UTC  

Dude I'm skinny too

2019-08-28 02:27:32 UTC  

Work hard at a sport? Get benched for other players

2019-08-28 02:27:39 UTC  

Lol, I'm on a steroid cycle

2019-08-28 02:27:55 UTC  

See profile image. Little Pomeranian who was a rescue. Bring her to the park and girls walk over to me. Sure they just wanna let the dog but it helps with experience

2019-08-28 02:28:01 UTC  

None of my hard work has ever paid off

2019-08-28 02:28:13 UTC  

Pet the dog*

2019-08-28 02:28:17 UTC  

@crustyoreo that's genius

2019-08-28 02:28:19 UTC  

That's why I've pretty much given up on everything

2019-08-28 02:28:33 UTC  

Why should I work hard in school if it'll never pay off?

2019-08-28 02:28:44 UTC  

Why should I bust my ass in the gym if I'll never make progress?
