The Burden of College Education

According to recent statistics, a college degree is still something among the wealthiest. If you have rich parents who can afford it, then you can go to college. However, it is also common to drop out of school at any time and for any reason.

For those who don’t have wealthy parents to turn to, a college education in America is synonymous with big debt, and who needs more debt these days? No one wants the burden of having to pay for their education 10 years after they graduate.

In effect, a college degree simply becomes a piece of paper that tells you that you are likely to sink into debt. It’s something you can’t brag about anymore. What could your college degree do when you’re up to your ears in college loans and can’t even get a job to pay for it?

It really makes sense when college dropouts make up their own minds. Some of them even become millionaires too considering they don’t have a degree.

So don’t worry. There are still jobs waiting for you even when you don’t have a college degree to speak of. And these are not just any jobs. They are paying so well that some of them inspire the term “millionaire.”

You probably know a person who has made it big somewhere. They are a new generation of people with high incomes. They all say the same thing about their jobs. They worked as hard as a college student has studied. The difference is that they didn’t need a degree to make money.

The secret to its success is clear and simple. It is a combination of diligence and motivation. They worked hard to be in the position they are in. They had a clear goal about what they wanted to do with their life that most people don’t have. Imagine if Bill Gates had no goal in life, would Microsoft exist? If Steve Jobs didn’t work hard enough after his own company was taken away from him, would our favorite Apple computers, iPad or iPhone be a part of our lives?

Sometimes it doesn’t matter if you have a college degree or not. It just depends on the person whether he will pursue her dreams or not. Some might say that a title isn’t necessarily necessary at all times, but I disagree. Although at some point it won’t be necessary, it will still give you an extra edge in life.
