In the interview it is mentioned how many kids graduate with an extreme amount of student debt. I am so thankful that I will not have any student debt. People always assume that going to college is the only way to be successful. I strongly disagree with that. My bestfriends dad did not go to college and he makes denchers and they have two houses, more vehicles than they need, three boats, six jet skiis and more than you could imagine and there is only three members in their family.
 I am in the battle with my mom right now about how I do not think you have to go to college to be successful. I think that there are many ways you can be successful without a college degree. It may help you out sometimes to have the degree under your belt but I personally do not think college is the only way to be successful. You can get many certificates, and license without going to college and be extremely successsfhll. Sometimes having money doesn't mean success. In my opinion being successful is being happy with life. I think success comes from being proud in where you are in life and being content.  I think some people's idea of success could be being a stay at home mom and they could think that they live such a successful life. Money is not everything in life. It is a necessity but it is not everything.
 I'm not saying people don't need to go to college because it is very helpful and needed in most situations. I'm simply just saying that college is not for everyone.

  1. I have a friend who didn't go to college but got his mechanical certification and was a mechanic at cadillac. Which proves that you don't have to go to college to be successful.

  2. I agree with you about how you can be successful without going to college. Those just have to apply themselves more.
