What are your thoughts on College debt. For me that's very painful, like just imagine you took like $50k for your college fee and now when you graduate, you already have a loan to pay so now you can't think of doing anything exceptional or taking risks becasue you have to pay that loan every month and you simply go for job. When you are down for like 20 years in your job then you realize what has happened to me.
College debts. Not always easy to be in that fixed 'hole' of paying back for several months.
I agree with you that it becomes difficult to do any exceptional thing or take risks.
In fact, several people are beginning to think to go to Colege (with the idea of College debt) isn't worth it. People now do 6 months courses in a specialized field and they are able to make life awesome for themselves and others.
I feel it is crucial for all of us to start rtethinkign what Edyucation reallymeans and how we can use it to achieve our awesome dreams rather than keep us in a trap that we culdn't avoid.
Yes, that's true and this is one of the reasons we come accross people saying that current College/University system sucks.
College debt can be tricky especially where the job market is tight. After you graduate, you have a huge debt and you are jobless.
College loans can be very useful if taken out with a strategy. The best strategy, in my opinion, is to network like crazy in college so that you already have established ties in your desired field once you graduate. This way, you have a potentially secured job after graduation. Too many people graduate with debt and they have no way of paying them back because it takes too long for them to have a steady income. Secure your job prior to graduation and you'll be okay.
That's quite possible and the smartest way to do otherwise you will be complaining about it your whole life.
I am saying this because I have seen it and I was like this is just insane.
