well unless things really change no prospective employer is going to recognise any of that because a resumes without at the very least a 2 year degree is going in the trash.

I'm done this summer.

1. First and foremost, it's too expensive. To send a kid to college you basically need up to $200,000.

No way, the way to go is community college for 2 years and then transfer. I have friends who owe about $80k, and I at the end of my 2 years at this school will owe less than $30k.

I also have a problem believing that anyone can get a good job with no bachelors, especially in the finance field. I know you honestly don't believe that companies are willing to hire people out of high school, unless it's McDonalds, or Burger King.

With that being said, my parents aren't paying for it, I mean I had a college fund, but it wasn't really kept up with, so it got me through the community college and partial of the first year here.
