you don't need a college degree to make money! Posted on 07-14-2006
Hahaha

yes it does put you at an advantage in some fields, and you can't do some occupations without one, but you won't be a complete faluire if you decide college is not for you! that's a downright LIE that's been fed to just about everyone. i dropped out in 2003 and right now i have a sales job paying me $45,000 a year. 8-) o yeah, walmart can kiss my big bright red rosie!

well do you wish to be in "sales" your entire life? and some choose careers because they're passionate about that particular field...not because of salary...and my brother came out of undergrad making 60K working as an engineer because he was already working as an intern at an internship he attained through his university but I digress...college definitely isn't for everyone...but as black people, we need to take advantage of every opportunity available because we're already a step behind

thats good for you, way to make it happen...my parents are strong advocates making your own path to success and not just going to college for the heck of it...too bad they did'n't have any good alternative ideas for me with all that "forge your own path" stuff they were talkin :x

i'd rather finish up gettin my degree in computer science with a minor in mathematics, and start out making $60,000. but that IS true, not everybody needs to go to college to make money. i mean, look at Jay-Z! i don't think HE went to college! bad example.

yea you definitely don't need a college education to live well. A good friend of mine is making millions doing what she does now and all she has is her diploma. But let me tell you, if you decide to go that route you have to be willing to take risks, and be able to change your game plan accordingly....o0h and you def. have to be focused. Homegirl got into the money game doing backgroud vocals, then moved on to videos, and now is the head model of an exclusive parisian high end fashion company annnnndddd owns her own modeling/dance agency...can you say cha-ching? But she puts in work and has made so0o many sacrafices. The lifestyle isn't for everybody.
