I know you have to do what you gotta do and I'm not judging you.
But be forewarned...any drug charges you have on your record will permanently revoke your chances of getting any financial aid. Like I said, I'm not hating, but I'm being a realist. I don't know how much money your mother is going to receive (and congratulations on that, by the way), but most reputable colleges run about $60,000 and up for a four year degree and that's just in state. If you're outta state, it could be $80,000. I don't know if you were talking about trade school or a university or whatever.
Whatever you choose, be smart. Long term gratification, boo. It's worth it in the end. That money may look real sweet right now, and for all I know, you could get away with it. But all it takes is one time and your whole future is fucked up. You're doing the right thing.
Yeah, most colleges cost start off costing about $50,000 a year and more. You may not need financial aid and if you don't, that's great. Shit, you may apply for financial aid and ask your mother to invest that money in a long term account with a good interest rate so you can have some serious cheese by the time you hit 50 or 60 (I know that sounds like hella far away but if you invested most of that money now? PFFT. COMPOUND INTEREST, MUHFUCKA. You could retire early and live your life however the fuck you want to).
But just keep that in mind while you're making your decision.
and she strikes again. you're right, and i'll never make that move.. i guess it was just the mood i was in yinno. kinna melancholy. iont eem care if i spelled that right my head hurts and im tryna watch million dollar bebbeh.
B, I'd say no dont do. First off youre going to ahve to go to a community college regardless of whether or not you get your ged what you could do is this, youre 18 right? at 18 you can go to a cc WITHOUT a diploma or ged. youll be able to get finacial aid, a fee waiver and probably book vouchers b/c youre low income. u dont need to grind to go to and pay for your first 2 years of college. youll pay nothing
i dont think your dad would want you risking getting locked up over some $. i hope that comment doesnt offend you but its just what i think... i think your mom possibly coming into money & your uncle offering u this jobb where u would make $$$ @ once is a sign sorta. maybe its a test to see if you have grown up yet...
im not going to tell you what to do bc i dont know you that well but im going to say this whatever u pick please be safe & take those that love you(ur momma) into consideration. money isnt everything..
