    Fuck university. Pick up a trade and get industry certifications. You’ll end up with real marketable skills without going into crippling lifelong debt. Some training agencies also offer help to find jobs. If you get lucky, your employer might even sponsor your education.

    Tradie life is not glamorous, but it’s better than working as a cashier while having a bachelor’s.

      Instead of taking out a financial loan, why not take out a loan against your body? Crippling pain instead of crippling debt.
