I have no empathy for bad short term thinking.

I could not afford to go to the college I wanted to go to, so I went to a cheaper one I could afford but no one really gives a fuck about. However, it left me with no debt, straight after graduating.

Today, as people struggle to pay off loans for universities they once boasted proudly about, it’s clear I made the right choice.

I did the same thing most of a decade ago. That pathway has unfortunately closed since the cheap college i went to tripled their tuition.
