education

I hated it but this is why my dad always pushed me to get a practical degree. I did and then when I was financially stable, I went back and got a master’s in creative writing that I knew would never pay itself back financially.

Sort of but different. I think college is valuable but not necessarily to get a job. So my advice will be to position themselves however they can for work without relying on college and use college for social development.

do you believe you will counsel the same for your own kids?

Totally agree. I’m so happy I got my MFA but I’m also happy I waited until I knew I could afford the debt that came with it.

Got an MFA can't say it opened any doors, however it was still life changing for me.

I’m on this boat! Well, the career itself pays out but there’s a lot of “ifs” which can get troublesome in some life phases. Who know what unpredictable things can happen? 

At least, except for the time, it was free.

Reminds me of this article 👇
I was torn up about getting a master's and in what?! I ended up returning to community college for a certificate post bachelors. It was the right call
