>>941627I don't know why you wouldn't want student loans. It's not compulsory to spend and the interest rates are usually pretty damn low.
Further, assuming you get a non shit degree, you'll be making more than enough to pay it back.
You really do have to spend money to make it.
You COULD try to go to community college; do work and only take hours when you can pay them off. At low to minimum wage though, you'll graduate 1-2 years late. This is what my friend did who graduated high school the same time as me and he's just finishing this December. Meanwhile I graduated 1.5 years ago and I've already made more than enough to pay back all my loans. Of course I didn't, because interest is only 6% and I could make more than that investing, so I just pay the minimum.
There's little to no difference.
