All i hear is "go to university so that you can get a good job or won't amount to shit", kind of

I went to uni to become a teacher, but honestly teacher education in my country is kind of a joke and I learned most of the important shit on the job. I could've gone through an alternative certification program which would've been a lot cheaper, but I don't know for sure how it would've affected my employment prospects.

Honestly, if you don't think university is for you, and you can get the education you need by other means, then go for it.

1. Decide what you want to be when you grow up.
2. Get the necessary education for it, if any.

have an uncle who did masters in econ or something, a year later he does a compsci course and he lives off that

You dont have to go to college to do real estate.

Take a sales course then get your real estate lisence

u dont need to go to university to become a real estate agent

If you do go to uni do it online. On campus is not worth it. My girlfriend is currently doing online schooling for IT and Cybersecurity/database management.

I started out in a seriously terible position, the day I turned 18 I had to be out of the house. I went into minimum wage jobs, got hooked up with a job at a construction site, moved onto concrete work and now I'm getting 30/hr with full benefits and vacation time doing work for the city. A huge part of your professional life will always be networking. It's how I've gotten every job that wasn't shit and minimum wage or barely above minimum.

I am mid 20s and doing better than most of my friends who went to university. You do have to work fucking HARD though, and seize every opportunity you get. It is also financially beneficial for you to have someone you can rely on. A girlfriend, a brother, a best friend. Live with them and cover each other's asses if you can. This world is cold and cruel and will knock your ass out on the streets in a heartbeat. Find someone and mutually take care of each other. You'll find yourself stronger for it.

Going to college to make 200k a year calibrating process control instruments from a 2 year tech school.

I had no idea this field even existed until i decided to look into jobs and industries nobody really talks about. There's a lot of specialized fields you won't know exist until you learn how society functions.

The answer to your question depends a ton on what you intend to go into. With computer science a lot of employers straight up aren't going to hire you for a decent position even if you do have a bunch of personal programming projects to show off to them. Like, you can get a job as a bottom tier code monkey, but you won't be able to advance upwards without a degree. Trades are different. You can get hired as a commercial tire maintenance technician for $15/hour without any schooling and if you're actually good at it and have a strong work ethic you can pursue a job as a trailer mechanic after a year or two and start making $23/hour. Then you can move onto becoming an auto mechanic after three years or so and make more.

>"go to university so that you can get a good job or won't amount to shit"
No.
It entirely depends.

Do you want to work as a nurse, doctor, teacher, engineer, IT, sciences or get a business/marketing degree to work in corporate?
If you answered yes to any of these then you need to get a University degree.

Do you want to work in a trade? (Plumber, builder, carpenter, electrician, joiner etc)
Go get an apprenticeship.

You want to work a minor skilled profession like Hairdressing or Aged Care?
Go to the relevant TAFE course (or equivalent in your country).

Want to work literally anywhere else?
Just go apply for the job.

There's a good chance that unless you're 150% passionate about the thing you want to do, that you wont still be doing it 10 years from now.
Dont do a marketing degree because you want to get a good job and make money.
Do the degree because it's something you LIKE and it's something you're PASSIONATE about so 10 years from now there's still a good chance that you like what you're doing.

Liking your job is 100% more important than just doing a job for the hell of it because it pays well.

it's like a 6 week TAFE course to be a real estate agent.

Do a trade if you're completely unsure
It's not uncommon to see an electrician make $80 000 in canada before taxes and shit

Lol no.
College kids end up as wage cucks, but with tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt.
Go to trade school, paid while you learn, at the end of it you'll make more than 90% of college grads anyways.

kek. you just don't understand the true spirit of the chan. we're nihilistic anarchists… with a twist.
we don't care if they were "innocent" (who is truly innocent, anyway?)
we just want to watch the world burn.

>socialist taxes
So $30,000 yearly net?
Kek

Damn. Newfags got some edge

Post secondary is a scam don't fall into the trap OP! You end up with thousands in student loans and no job in the field you broke your ass for. The loans also ignore bankruptcy. Just find a job through a friend or family. That is the best option for realistic success. You can spend 250$ on a forklift ticket and spend a weekend in a course then immediately start work at 15-20$ an hour. Don't go to MCD or Walmart, go into metal fab, or processing if you have to start low tier.

NOT TRUE. I am living proof. My advice: LEARN A TRADE.

You don't really know what socialism is, do you?

Its canada.
It's a socialist shithole.
Cope harder canacuck

Here's one path for ya that I know works:

>Go to school for a year and become a PC tech
>Get an entry level job
>Keep getting certifications
>Move from job to job, might have to move from state to state
>Do online classes while working, your job might even pay for it
>Get a bachelors online in something like cyber security
>$100,000+/year before 30 years old

Haha, yeah, that's a no.
