He's not saying it isn't vital, he's saying if you don't have the money it not worth saddling yourself with that much debt for majority of your adult life.Then why are college graduates making the most money if it isn't vital?
His methods for tackling debt are effective, no doubt, and yes, people can find stable incomes and meaningful work without having a college degree.It's really easy to see how a message can get misinterpreted.
I would recommend listening to his show for a week. It might not be for you, but thousands of people have gotten themselves into better financial positions following his system.
college inflation over the years has been crazyI mean....if we all studied and got great grades yea or geaux to a JUCO....but how about keeping jobs in America or make college affordable since you need people with education to thrive as a nation.
I heard stories. That's why I'm all for JUCOs being FREE. That way you only have 2 yrs of debt max. You study hard and get a scholarship for Masters.college inflation over the years has been crazy
my dad put himself through college by driving a bus and working at the airport...
it was much cheaper then.
the answer is its because the same folks that run and work in these schools are the same ones that say they are "for the people".
They're living off government subsides and in turn inflating the cost of going to school
I graduated in 07 from Highschool, economies ass fell out, couldn't get a job until 08, and there was not nearly enough savings to be on some "i'm going to college" shyt. Like most of the people I graduated with, IF they got a job after highschool, most were part time and not because that is what we wanted. This is not a popular not palatable path for most.I complain alot, but Dave is right. If you took two years off after highschool, that's enough time to save about $12,000 - $20,000 cash. Add in scholarships and grants and you going in with about $30,000.
If I could start over, I'd work 2 years after highschool and save while living at home.

He'd be correct if one did it the proper, modern way, i.e., excel in high school, take AP classes and earn scholarships to help pay tuition and other fees, go the community college route and transfer to a university that will accept ALL of the classes that you've already taken, and work a job to help make payments as well.
The issue is that takes some serious mental fortitude and strong wok ethic, and is very unrealistic in today's climate. That's why I just joined the military because I wasn't about struggling for 4-5 years with life, school and employment.
If you qualify for the Pell Grant, the above is definitely doable.
Edit: Sophia is also a great method to earn college credit. I'm able to knock out half of my associates through that shít

That being said, the big issue is the COST of college and why it seems like they are price gouging.
Smart young people should have access to higher education. Some folks are disadvantaged and need a helping hand, a leg up, etc. College shouldn’t be completely off the table because you weren’t born to successful parents.
What I have learned is the real move is if you can make that much without school, you stack, get some years under your belt, and go back to college after you already got your weight up a bit. I'm basically doing the same thing paying for school 100% out of pocket now. I'm washed in age, though.
How many fukking teenagers got a perfect plan set out for the next 5-10 years of their lives?You said it B. Dudes in here making excuse after excuse.
