definetley not a fan of post-high school education but it seems to be very hard to get the qualifications for a job that provides financial stability without a college education

the problem is, in America higher education is mostly a racket designed to take students' money but not facilitate their matriculation into appropriate jobs at the end of it.

aside from 1] the outrageous cost, and 2]lack of cooperative frontal lobes, I will never go to college for that reason, that there is no job placement afterwards, but just a gamble that appropriate jobs will be available when it is really a crapshoot or lottery with very remote odds.
