I am kind of bummed about this because I was kind of taught that phrase my entire life and did not look at the positives of a trade since I do work better with my hands than theoretical (also the programs are significantly cheaper). At least I did find a major in my university that is kind of a trade, so I do get hands-on training (piloting).
I had the same instance where my high school presses and pressed ‘go to college, get a degree!’
I’m insanely thankful I didn’t. My apprenticeship (5 Years) gave me a associates degree and covered all tuition, book costs, etc. all at no cost to me as long as I worked for a signatory contractor for 5 years post completion. $75,000 worth of schooling and training, at no costs to me.
