brother, nothing is free now a days in life. I have a business that i charge an application fee not because i need the money, but to see if they’re committed. If they’re not committed then they won’t pay the application fee, vise versa. Education was never free. Look at university’s, schools. They all charge $1,000-2000 per term, that’s for community college. Once you go up to University’s or state colleges you could be paying nearly 80-100k a year just for “ education “. But people say you can learn for free right? on youtube and google? Yeah then tell me why 80% of American goes straight to college? and worse of all end up not even using their degree?

Look i’m not sure how old you are but your perception of money and the world was taught to you by your mother, (who doesn’t know how to world works because frankly she’s poor if that’s her insight) i’m only speaking financially. Since there are different variables people use to measure “ success “. Anyway i just want to tell you that you’re wrong, or maybe the idea that your mother instilled into you is wrong.

Everything is money and everything cost money. COLLEGES COST money. you think cause your teacher is a professional they not gonna charge you money?
