A lot of the high school things you just mentioned didn't start happening in most states till around 2000 or so. So I couldn't get college credit in high school in Ohio because they just started allowing that after I graduated high school. I understand that generally the college educated people make more money. My degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Management hasn't even helped me find a job in that career. Problem is that there are too many Wildlife majors for the little jobs. I have applied to about 1,000 or more wildlife jobs since 2007 and received one offer for part time job in FL which I denied because I couldn't move there for a part time job. So my field is pretty much filled with people with more experience and I can't get any experience because no one will hire me. So I work in manufacturing field etc until one day maybe I will get my chance..... The only thing I can thank my degree for is the 16k in federal student loan debt. |
Well that really stinks :( , I'm still attempting to get through college without any debt. It will be tough when I like to spend too much money on games and candy, but I'm still hopeful :)
Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
