This is a good story that illustrates the importance of finding out the requirements of a career prior to pursuing a degree. It's extremely difficult to do this at 18 because not people know what they want to do. This is the job of guidance councilors. Sadly, most are not worth a damn.
Exactly. The guidance counselors all give you shitty advice. Who the hell knows what to do at 18? You're supposed to look toward adults to guide you and give you good advice. But they're not.
That shit is so dumb, I don't understand the idea of parents sending their kids straight to college right out of high school just so they don't have to "deal with them" anymore. I condemn the shit out of those kind of parents.
Parents are literally setting their children up for failure with this outdated dumb mindset.
True story, all the other peers in my group had an additional year of college because they let the guidance counselor map out their classes instead of doing it themselves like I did. The counselors added a bunch of courses that were not applicable to their degrees.

Military is a good way to figure it out. As long as you can stay disciplined and not become a raging alcoholic.
Take 4 years, serve your country and figure out what career may be the best for you.
Can take classes while you are serving, then use GI Bill upon completion.
Best decision I ever made in my life

Boomer Yuppie mindset, the same fucks who warehouse their own parents because "I just can't deal with it"
