I have no college education... Infact, I dropped out of highschool senior year as soon as all my sports programs were done.
Today, I have my own small business & we are currently growing/expanding in this down economy.
Last month I put 2 more people into business for themselves through me & this month I will be hiring atleast 2-4 more.
I supported my lady while she went through college & got her piece of paper @ the cost of a hefty student loan.
That peice of paper got my lady absolutely shit in the job world... Today, my lady is the head paralegal for her law firm & is making good money... but she started as a simple file clerk there at that firm working for minimum wage.. it was her work, effort, exp, etc. that got her there.. not the piece of paper.
I'm not trying to take anything away from college... but it seemed to make little difference in our life. I actually feel I am in a better position in life now than if I had gone to college.. I could be wrong but...
Im 25.. got my own business that is going up in the down market... if I went to college I would probley be 25.. no business.. student loan... and trying to find work/money/etc. in this shit economy..
Again not to take anything away from higher education.. but it seems to me that life worked out 'better' without... but I really cant know that for sure as I'm too dumb to know the ladder from not going on for that extra bit of school'n
*ninja edit - good luck to you & your hubby btw
