Same. I went to community college, took a crap ton of AP and CLEP courses and went to state college which was the cheapest way to get a 4 year degree in my area. I worked FULL TIME at a crappy job slaving away to pay for it all and lived with my parents to keep costs low. Never complained.
The funny part is that when I graduated I ended up making 60k/year with excellent benefits and some of my coworkers wen to expensive schools and have 100k+ in student loans. They make the same amount as me.
Of course they flaunt their degree around but they always tell me that they regret going to the college they went to because it costs too much.
Meanwhile I'm over here ready to easily put 20% down on my first home while they're spending all the extra income on struggling to pay down the student loan.
I just laugh at them. Go figure, they're all a bunch of liberal idiots that think they're the smartest guys in the room.
College student, no debt here
