Going to college or technical school?
After so many years of being in the workforce as a salesman and owning my own business I decided to go back to school. At 37 years old it was a tough decision. Work part time and try to support my family while learning a trade, one that would take 8 months to complete. Or go to a traditional college and take either 2 or 4 years to complete.
I am now in the mindset that a technical school is best and the reasoning is this: I have met many people who are $15K up to $49K in debt, having earned thier degree but not working in the field they earned that same degree.
My kids are still a few years away from having to think about it, but as a dad, I have to be able to help them decide.
So, what do you think? |
