I believe joining the trades - craftsman, electrician, welder, plumber etc actually does cost a little bit of money. Then you have to do an apprenticeship. Then you have to hope you land a good gig to start making the decent $$ - eventually you can earn a lot in them. I think its still expensive to do anything education wise. I was lucky with academic and athletic money for school - but I still have more than my fair share of debt. This whole college thing is really getting insane lol. Its even worse now, but this article shows in the past 30 years - the average price of a college degree has gone up 1,120%. My generation is going to have a lot of things like sports cars or owning a personal vehicle die off because most just can swing a purchase like that until their 45 and have their loans paid off. Its nuts
