I know that we should be learning for learning's sake, but I truly don't see the point of a college education if you don't plan to have a career "outside the home." It seems like a waste of time and money, but please understand that I'm coming at this from the perspective of someone who grew up in a blue collar family, was the first in my family to attend college, and financed my education with loans and scholarships. Why would I have gone to college and taken on that debt just to keep house? I'm all for the choice, but it is financially irresponsible to go to college unless you are paying cash or you plan to work off the debt.
