   Community college is essentially free. Meet with a counselor and figure out which classes to take.

   Transfer for a state school, work part time and take out loans for the rest.

   Biggest advice is to get a useful degree. Don’t go an get a degree in art theory or you will be in a worse place that you are today.

   Fyi; there are plenty of Trade jobs that can provide a similar income with less investment (electrician, plumber, radiology tech)

   Honestly? I enlisted in the military. They paid for a lot of my training and some optional certs (GIS related) with software that landed me a good gig once I separated. It also gave me a buffer to get some life experience and figure how what I was interested in pursuing. Now I’m chipping away at a degree I wouldn’t have originally chosen out of high school.

   I went to community college for my general associate’s degree and then transferred into a bachelor’s program. I paid out of pocket for college and took classes as I could afford them, asked for textbooks for birthdays and Christmas to help offset costs, etc. It took me 6 years to finally finish my undergrad while working full time, but I did it!

   Picking a direction is tough. At least with a general associate’s degree, most of the courses are general education courses so you don’t need to make many decisions right away. Use that time to figure out your options and what will provide a good ROI from the time/cost of your education. As a student, you may be able to shadow/intern/volunteer with different people to help figure out a direction.

   Not me, but multiple friends went the military route, and are doing very well in their 40s.

   My ex worked at Wendy’s. Promoted to assistant manager. Promoted to restaurant manager. Franchise owner made her manager for all 3 because she was proactive, had a positive attitude, and busted her ass. Was making more than I was as a 25 year old engineer, at 22.

   My niece was working her ass off at Sherwin Williams, got hired and trained as an estimator by a contractor, then went into sales at renewal by Anderson windows, made 200k in her first year, at 25…2 years ago.

   Luck to get me into a position that normally wouldn’t look at me, then crazy hard work to move upward through various roles and departments. 15 years later and its finally paying off.
