I think this totally depends on you. In my case I think I will hardly earn money and would not be accepted to my current job If haven't went to College.

Prefer to keep the money spend on college and use the time to work on McDonald. Use the saving to start up bitcoin investment or business.

If you start working early you can build work experience and you have time to innovate and be recognised in your field; some positions are only filled with college graduates though I think this totally depends on you. In my case I think I will hardly earn money and would not be accepted to my current job If haven't went to College.
You would have done something else and you would not be in debt or have more money

The thing is you make more money when you go to college but it costed you lost of income and tuition fees and you make more money because you are likely to be smarter, more connected, from a more affluant family and more eager to succeed plus everyone knows that because you went to college

Going to college actually spend more money then making more money. You can use the 5 years time in college to work as anything and most probably manager level after 5 years.

700 euro per year for 5 years = spending more than earning? Hm. This might be in the US, but only insane people go live there. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Not at all! I finished 2 colleges in my country but couldn't find job in my profession. Now, I'm happy to work for low salary and have any job. College can give you education but can't give you job.

In most cases yes, furthering your education allows people with higher qualifications to be paid more than those with less... but ultimately in depends on the person itself and what they make out of their lives

What country do you live in? I feel like certain county's colleges have more credibility and value than others. For example, a "normal" college in India probably has way less value than a "normal" state college in USA.

On average, it's hard to say. I'm inclined to say yes. Anecdotal experience may vary. Most people I knew who went to college have solid employment now, and probably on average make more money. But people don't always like to talk about this stuff.

simple concept to understand.
I dont like to borrow money, esp when thats huge amount and most people find it they can pay it back.
If you can then your just buying the name of the school you went, and its about what you go on about getting that job to pay it back when your 55 years old.

Well, it's a matter of degree as well. I know people who borrowed 6 figures for an undergrad degree. That's crazy. But borrowing 50% or 100% of a year's salary? That's not that crazy.

It really depends on your degree. If you are getting a degree in finance that can pay 6 figures after 2 years then borrowing 3 years salary would not be a big deal as it can be paid back and the salary is much higher then that if you didn't have a degree. What I think is crazy is people paying anything at all for degrees like history or English as these degrees are generally worthless.

Yeah, that doesn't exist, or at least statistically not worth discussing. I'd disagree as well with the latter point, assuming the graduates are willing to work admin/communications/marketing/etc jobs and not married to academia.

I once knew a pharmacist. He made really good money if I remember right. He didn't have a permanent full-time job, but he would fill in at various pharmacies in the area once or twice a week and still seemed to live really well.
