I dropped out of community college and my dad wants to pay off my tuition + 120 bucks a week just to get me to go back. I refuse and he gets mad at me and it always comes with an hour conversation on the phone. He is VERY hellbent on my going despite me saying I want to just work full time or just go to a trade school. I have hated school my entire life.

am I in the wrong here? I had a 1.9 GPA with only 2 classes left to graduate.

if you're that close why not just tough it out? might cut you out of the will if you piss him off too much

it costs 1500. he wants to pay it but its a waste of money
>>
>>83999836
that's fucking nothing for a genx probably nearing retirement, did you grow up in a trailer or something
>>
>>83999836
your a waste of money <3

Will going to community college increase your odds of making more money and ascension? My dude, 15 hundred is not a lot of money. It isn't 20 bucks either but 1500 is a small price to make more on return
>>
>>83999735
complete it for him you stupid nawnce
>>
>>83999886
for 2.5k I can go to trade school for a year. I already did a 2 year program in High school. he wont pay that though so I must work to save up that money.
>>
>>83999925
I hated school. I wasted a bunch of money the first time, why would I do it now?
>>
>>83999850
I come from the upper middle class. my dad makes 200k a year. my mom makes 80k a year but she's given up on my completely. parents are divorced. I live with my mother.

it is still the first time you only have 2 classes left retard
the degree will put you on a level higher than most other tradesmen, having that will allow you to ply your trade in a nice area instead of settling for a trailer home in some bumfuck town in the midwest. With an associate's you can get into a lot of trade schools for free. There are plenty of benefits you are ignoring to avoid 2 more classes i'd disown your stupid ass.

then you have a lot to lose by pissing him off, don't be retarded, i'm saying this as a high school dropout hikineet

>>84000122
because you quit a free ride 95% of the way to a big milestone that will preserve your relationship with your remaining (financially well off) parent if it does nothing else at all for you, this is ragebait
>>
>>84000118
Then save up the money, faggot ass nigga.
>>
Being at school made me violent and when I dropped out I immediately stopped being violent.

Its not. Listen to the man >>83999812

Credentials are important, you will never can predict but in the future people see your credentials and may tip scales into your favor when hiring and it's win.

Its one thing when it's a big endeavor but you nearly there, so go and finish.
>>
>>83999735
I'm someone who dropped out and went to tradeschool, it was the best decision of my life. But the difference is that I had most of college ahead of me, you have two classes left. It'd be retarded not to get them.
>>
>>83999836
You're wasting a lot more money by stopping now. This isn't a sunken cost fallacy issue, by quitting now you're throwing away all the previously spent money for nothing, vs $1500 for a degree (even if a shitty one)
>>
>>83999735
Do what you want as long as you understand the consequences of every action you take.
>>
>>83999836
You are such a fucking retard
>>
>>83999735
Join the military young fella.
>>
>>83999735
>with only 2 classes left to graduate
... you fucking quit with 2 credits left for a degree
>>
>>83999735
Just do it faggit. Even if you think that its waste of money, do it to make dad happy. Its not much to him, but it means him a lot. And you allmost finished anyway.
