  1. That's how it is in the US too.

  2. It's better to start your own business. Say you are really good at drawing stuff and you want to do illustrations for people. Wouldn't it be better to spend 4 to 6 years doing that and getting paid for it than spend 4 to 6 years paying to learn something you probably already know? I'll say this; if I took all the time I spent in college and used it towards my business, I would be much better off. Unemployment is approaching the 30% mark and is gonna stay that way since A LOT of stuff is gonna start being automated. It's easier and cheaper than ever to start an online business. Which is gonna be better in the long run?

  3. People can hate on influencer gurus all they want...at least when you take their courses you have a CHANCE to make money as long as you put the skills they teach to use. Can't say this about college at all. Gurus may prey on emotions but college does this even worse. I was going just to escape reality since college is straight up MARKETED to people with compromised mental health. People like me who spent most of their adult lives just hoping that the pain stops somehow. Here's hoping college enrollment drops significantly over the next decade because IMO they are worse than the influencer gurus.

  4. It's not even that. Its also the "you'll find people just like you!" message as well. It's even marketed to people like me who have been fighting a lifelong war of attrition to not end their own lives. "Go to college! You'll find people who are struggling with mental health just like you!" Instead of getting the help I needed I went to college just so I could get an excuse to give up on life. I should have been stronger and not given in.
