Cut college in half
Halloween is over, but we’ve got something even scarier for you to think about: Saving up for (or paying off) four years of college.
Add in the interest, books, a heaping supply of No-Doz, and the price keeps rising. And don’t forget those high-tech headphones to drown out your roommate’s snoring.
Wouldn’t you like to cut all of this in half? Or more?
You can with an associate’s degree. Half the years and half the cost – probably even less than half. Sure, you might be thinking that in order to score some really big bucks, you need a four-year bachelor’s degree. Not true.
If you’re calling our bluff, then just check out this list of the top 25-paying jobs you can land with an associate’s degree. Heck, at a median salary of nearly 70 grand a year, a radiation therapist doesn’t sound like a bad gig, right?
You can get a associate’s degree from many traditional bachelor’s degree-granting colleges, plus business schools, community and junior colleges, as well as through online programs.
So if you can’t wait (or pay for) four years of college, think of that number of sweaters you thought you needed to fold at the mall to afford a four-year school. Or imagine the number of tables you thought you needed to wait. And cut them in half.
