Bypassing a college degree might be the best economic move

<p>A friend’s child would get a free ride at his college. Upon learning this, said child asked “So, if I don’t go there, do I get $200,000?” . Well…no.
I’m just thinking about how strange it seems to just hand over $200,000 to an 18 year old and say ‘Okay - go start a business.’
That being said, I do see kids who really don’t need a college degree. I’d like to see the return of more voc-tech programs, for example and more apprentice programs.</p>
