| I have one son who will end up getting "paid' about 20K to attend undergraduate and graduate school. I have another who will end up paying about 80K to attend school. Both are doing what they love and so we assume that they will do well in their careers. Getting paid to go to school is only worth it if you are doing what you love. Likewise going in to debt is only worth it if you are doing what you love, because you actually have to be successful enough to pay off the debt. Even the coolest job becomes a drag if you don't really enjoy the work.
That's my opinion and what I advised all of my kids. |
