PSA: my uncle's advice to 'just go get a trade' saved me from $40k in debt
When I dropped out of a state school in Ohio after 3 semesters back in 2019, my uncle sat me down and said 'stop chasing a piece of paper, get a trade.' I ignored him for a year and waited tables while my student loans sat at $40,000 and didn't move an inch, then finally took his push and got into HVAC certification at a community college for $6,000 total. Has anyone else had a family member give you the 'wrong' sounding advice that actually turned out to be the only thing that worked?
