Smoking hard drugs is a bad decision. Doing a number of illegal activities is a bad decision. There are plenty of bad decisions.

To be fair, that was 2 decades ago, and our tuition was/is nothing like the US. It was something along the lines of 1.5k per year for EU citizens.

Depends on how stupid, it might actually make things easier

I've got a friend who started college in 2000, same as me...we even roomed together in 2003. I graduated in 2004. By the time he graduated, the incoming freshman were born the year he started, and I could not be more proud of him.

Just the fact that he could afford to go back to school without selling those cars… wow…
I gave up on my music performance degree in favor of accounting/finance (I came from a very poor family and realized that neither music nor my family would ever pay my bills) - and as much as I fantasize about being able to go back and finish it ‘someday’, I don’t even think a whole career in my field would ever pay for that. Not after paying back my student loans and acquiring a house.
I’d have to hit the lotto. 😔

I went back in my mid 20’s after not being able to get any loans to continue with school. Now I have to work full time while I do full time classes. My manager at my job graduated high school a year after me and has like 5 years experience in his field already. It’s rough, but I’m doing so much better in school this time around, averaging a 3.8 GPA the last 3 semesters so far!!

> The finish line don’t have
There’s a lot going on in this post.
From the “yee-haw redneck” grammar, to the questionable “4th beer” cropping…
On the bright side, I suppose it leaves a lot of room for engagement.

My husband to 32 years took finish college due to his military service. He finished made more than $100,000 a year and we are now retired and building a new home in Florida. Keep your eye on the prize!

Doesn't make much sense to assume Bachelor's. Most international students pursue a Master's and most 5-year programs are Master's.

Also last week one of my group members told me:
"30s mean nothing anymore. Rhianna danced pregnant at the superbowl in her 30s, so you are just as bad ass!"
So going back to college and interacting with the younger generation keeps you young and really boosts your self esteem!

Started college in early 2000’s. Took a bit of a hiatus. Went back in 2018, finished in 2020-at 39 years old. I’m glad I did it, but boy was it awkward.

I am set to graduate this December. I was supposed to graduate in 2008. My degree is older than most of the folks in my classes and who will be graduating next to me.
In 2007 I had a 2.0 GPA, now I am getting 4.0 every semester, and am on track to admission into some pretty good MBA programs.
Its not about how fast you get it done, its about getting it done! GO KNIGHTS!
