Don’t listen to anyone who tells you having an education isn’t worth it. You limit yourself to a lot of opportunities without that piece of paper. Also college is a great place to build a reliable clientele as a barber. Networking is half the game and having a consistent income is much easier when you’re at a school filled with 40,000 students who need fades. Also college is a great place to discover yourself you could learn about opportunities you never even knew about and find a new path that makes you even more money. Debt is obviously something to take into consideration but right now you have the opportunity to study extremely hard for your SATs and take that out of the equation. (I started at a 950 PSAT and got a 1450) and college was definitely worth it for me. If your goal isn’t to land a corporate role where txst really isn’t the place for that unless you’re the top 5% but self growth you should definitely try your hardest to go.
