Dumb statement is dumb.
Can you make great money not going to college? Hell yeah, lots of my friends do.
However, I wouldn't have NEARLY the life I do today without college. Not just financially, but just quality of life. I sit in a temperature controlled office all day, using my fingers and my brain to earn money. Most jobs without a degree (read: not all) that earn high dollars are physically exhausting and you can't do them for 40 years.
Honestly, the $560 a month sucks balls, but it'll pay itself off over and over and over again.
80k for a Vet? No offense, but isn't that relatively low for that field?
