College options?

[DBCooper]

What do you guys think of the importence of college? I have free college due to the Army College fund and G.I. Bill, I also have friends that could help me start a business in a year or so, they already make good money(construction-car sales)-I'm looking for job security and great insurance(I'm a powerlifter) so a college degree and a dependable job would go a long way for me.

These days a college degree is as vital as a high school degree if you want to make any sort of money.

No matter what people say a college degree makes you more attractive to employers. I'd go for it.........especially seeing as its free

I thoroughly enjoy the challenge

I´ve always said college isnt for everybody. A lot of people without it, do much better than the people that went to college. But it depends on the person.

Get the college degree. If the business fails, you have nothing to fall back on. An exception that I can think of is college athletes that are offered millions to come out early. I think they're crazy if they don't take it. They could get injured playing out their college career and there goes all that money. Anyway, they can always go back and finish college.

Thanks everyone, I was thinking of using it just to add another skill and area I could work in. Real Estate, Nursing and Construction are always in need around here. The tech field here seems flooded, I have my class B CDL's but driving in a hot ass truck all day ain't no fun.

Take it, man, and choose something in demand.

Of the three you listed, I'd go with Nursing, or some such related field. Check into things like Respiratory Therapy and such, too.
