everything is only worth what you put in... school can get you more in the long run...

we'll take one field... IT. you can make good money w/o anything and your experience can get you farther then a college grad, but after the college grad has experience doing the same thing what do you have to offer

By the time the college grad has the experience you should've been promoted . Im personally sick of school today and I'd love to do my own thing, but I dont have the skill set involved to do it, which is why im in school in the first place .

this is true but again... in the long run when you want to make that job hop to another company and your going up against some guy w/ a degree + exp you better have a flawless resume or your going to get looked over.
