    Opinion: Skipping college is not going to make you fastlane

    HOT! 
    Over the last 6 months I have read a lot of comments condemning college and associating it with the slow lane mentality. Why is this? I understand the hate for college debt and the increasing cost of education. Is it the systems fault though for these kids to take out huge loans on shitty...

    Ended Up in University: I Regret it Already

    RANT 
    So a few months ago, right after high school, my parents kind of "persuaded" me to go to University (crabs in a bucket mentality, once again). So it's been 3 months now and I feel like my life SUCKS. It feels like I'm wasting my time. I believed I could both study and run a side-hustle. I was...

    How not to get ripped off going to college...

    NOTABLE! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Uh... study something in demand? A specialized skill?! Drop the liberal arts BS and go study something that has a marketplace demand! Fastlane economics are the same as job market economics. Once again, study something that gives you a specialized skill with a NEED! Demand! Value...
