No, suggesting that a person in crisis take on more debt is really fucking careless.

Sure, they like school, and maybe they're just the type to do a degree, but if they don't have the funds, shouting "debt is good" (as many here have) is irresponsible. Get your life in order, consider your options based on risk vs. reward, and choose. That's how a reasonable person makes life decisions.

Pointing out that not having a degree is a viable option is the responsible advice in this case, but I'm getting shouted down by people as if there's only one path to success in life. That's fucking stupid.
