Is College a Scam? You Be the Judge

While scam may be a harsh term for the issue. There are definitely some issues that should be examined. College is a benefit to the graduate who has the right mindset about college. A person attending with old school mindset is likely to simply create debt with insufficient return.

College experience and knowledge can be maximized with creative thinking, strategic planning and financial literacy prior to selecting a school and during attendance. Problem....how many kids are at that level of thinking by the time they are seniors in school? Which is when the decision making for college is usually made.


However, you could also get alternative learning and make your mark in life with success and meaning contributions without creating so much debt from traditional education.

People seem to dismiss the potential of alternative education like community college and private training and even internet course. Not to mention business specialty training and training online. For instance I use this affiliate to make money while driving a truck. Well a college student could be doing the same thing.

I didn't go to college but if I did, it would only enhance my writing, and the information that I could draw from. www.sbiyesican.com (yes it is an affiliate link. I use it to make moneyonline)The truth is that there are other options. Explore all options, not just assume that a tradition 4 year school is the only route to success.

BUT be for real. A lot of what is stated is relay situations that just does not have to exist.

YOU DON't have to go to the most expensive schools.
YOU DON'T have to start creating other high expenses know you have those student loads to pay and then complain about how much of your pay is going to the repayment and you have other obligations. Don't make those obligations if you know you have to pay that loan.
YOU DON'T have to blow your student load money on other stuff that it is not supposed to be spent on.

So take what you will from this entry. Most of all. Think for yourself and do what makes sense for you, not what everyone else does.

It's obvious from this video that there should be college reform. Meanwhile though, use your head and don't get caught up in the hype. Do what is best for you.

What's your opinion?
