While I could not afford to pay for college and my grades were not stellar from hi school I managed to do college while serving eight years in the Air Force and then finished up when I found time. I actually ended up with 158 credit hours because of the repeated classes due to travel and extra stuff I was just interested in. My pay an allowances in Feb 1968 were $500 a month I went into an engineering job for three times that and managed to increase that to nearly ten times that by 20 years. My last job I made considerably more and retired with a nice pension plan, a paid for house and car, and enough to pay for anything I want. Conversely by brother never finished college and is still forced to work past retirement age and drives an old car and lives in a mobile home.
Well I'm ABOUT to get out of uni, so I hope it wasn't all a waste!
EDIT: It seems like all genders from all races are there... Except Asian females. I wonder why? =P
