You really should be more quiet about what you earn, you're attracting those of us who have less. It's a good thing we're not illegal aliens, because I'm rather serious, if one of them were overhearing you discuss all this, they'd find a way to rob you. I've been a victim of it. I even once loaned a guitar to a friend I thought I could trust, only to find that his mexican roommate's cousin managed to pawn it ...
Remember, a good education is something no one can take away from you. It allows you a better ability to understand the things around you and also gives you a fuller life as a result. It is a struggle to pay for, that is true, but what you gain often overcompensates for the cost and investment of your time.

I am one who doesn't like the indoctrination that MANY, if not MOST, of our students by our schools today. But by attending you'll learn the lingo/jargon and understand what they're doing and that closeup first hand experience can only done by observing and being there. You don't get the fill gist of it by sitting on the sidelines. But when you're aware of it, you can expose it.

Don't give up. It's an investment in yourself that is worth more than anything else you do. Just don't expect it to land you a great job, that's not what's happening today. But there's more to gain than just a job.
