    Plenty of things, college being the biggest. But, I’ve gotten to the point where I’m able to see benefits in just about everything I’ve done in my life.

      Agreed. I’m sad I wasted time and money on a failed attempt to get a degree, but I appreciate the people I met and the experiences I had.

        Listen, if you want a degree, you don’t have to do the usual route. Check out WGU - it’s competency based so basically if you can do the math test, you pass the math class. If you can write the english paper, you pass the english class. Just push through and you’ll be done, and it’s super cheap. My advisor said she had someone finish a masters in 6 months.
