Dear Mr. President

My daughter knows more after first grade than I did after 5th. They know fraction addition and subtraction, and learned cursive writting. My oldest step daughter will be taking all college classes her senior year and 1/2 her junior year, all worth college credit. that will save me a ton on college costs right there.
 

Maxdlx,

She'll have to make sure they transfer to her school of interest (if she has any plans for Schooling). I had 8 AP credits from High School that weren't allowed to be transfered to my school. Just something to consider when picking classes. I wish someone had mentioned that too me so I wouldn't of wasted that extra money.
 
Our school has a full time employee doing just that forthe kids. our babysitter from a couple yars ago had her freshman year in college complete at Iowa State( I know its not a real school like Iowa, but) when she graduated HS. I would have had to drop out under todays standards. LOL
 
MOST of the trades around here make SIX FIGURES a year!!! There is a LOT of NEW CONSTRUCTION here in Chicago and a LOT of rehab work also... The economy has hurt somewhat,,but,, this time of year we usually have 7 or 8 guys on the out of work list and we have around TWENTY now... There is STILL A LOT of work out here and ALSO a LOT of work left in HURRICANE and TORNADO zones this time of year and ALSO from previous years!!!

If I could find a job swinging a hammer or digging ditches that'll pay 6 figs, I'd gladly quit school. I really miss being able to work outside and get dirty. Starting to think this school thing is overrated. LOL. I know I'll never be able to have someone pick up my tab for school, fine by me. My point was that I hope our nation puts more emphasis on schooling and somehow makes it more affordable for others to go to school. I had buddies from High School that wanted to go, but simply couldn't afford it, even with help from the family and govt loans (when they were easier to get compared to now). They're doing alright right now, but still wonder "what if". I'm scraping by, happier than hell. I hope all finishes up well, not for me, but for the future little VenomMod. LOL.

I'm think the government will still pay for your school if you sign up for the Guards or Full time military. There's a time limit on how far back they will pay for previous schooling.
