Is this decision you are making based on the $14 per hour you are currently making? Because, I have to be honest with you, it seems like a lot of money now, but it is still only around $30,000 a year. Not that that amount isn't okay, but statistics show that a college education can increase your salary dramatically.

Just as an example, medical capital equipment reps or pharma reps start at $65,000 with a car and potential to double that in bonus. ANd that is just one industry.

My dad sold fine paper products in the 70s and made well into six figues in the 70s, and he got the job because he went to college.


Obviously money isn't the only reason that you should return to college, but it seems that your parents are using that as a reason for you not to attend.
