Disagree with you though Blonde about 18 being too young to go to college. If anything, people should get out of school earlier in life. American kids basically have their hands held until the age of 22 (or older!) before ever having to take on any responsibilities of their own. It leaves them spoiled and irresponsible. Then they think they're entitled to retire at age 55. People basically work for less than half of their lives nowadays and think they deserve a super-cushy lifestyle in the non-working years. And we wonder why America is up to its debt in eyeballs and virtually without a hope of being the world's economic superpower in a matter of a decade or so.
College is wayyy overrated. I would advise anyone with half a pair between their legs to skip it and go make their bones in sales or something somewhere. Instead, what does everyone do? Not only go to college, but figure out a way to go to college V2.0 (ie: law school or some worthless grad program) to just further bury themselves in debt and waste some of their most productive years accomplishing tasks that add virtually no value to society.
