chriztophe:

it’s stupid to me to realize I’ve grossed over $100,000 since i started paying for school.. and that I have approximately $7.00 in my bank account right now… I feel absolutely fucked by the system which, with help from my parents, high school, and society, terrified a 17yr old me into this over-priced education telling methat I’d be broke, and homeless, and jobless, without it. If I had taken a loan for less than 1/4 of my total current debt, I’d be well beyond financing my music career, and in the unlikely event that I had failed miserably and felt the need to actually give up (never ever would happen), I’d still be at least 4 years younger than I am now, with the time/knowledge/financial maneuverability to try something else.   
If I ever have kids, If I’m ever in a position of influence at all in the lives of children/teens, I will do what should have been done for me, and stress the importance of having a real game plan before making a $160,000+ decision at age 17/18. 



THIS.
