The best thing to do is to just do it. So many people talk of doing stuff but never actually do it.
If you can't go full time then take a few night classes. It will take longer, but before you know it you're done. There is a lot of financial aid out there if you really look. I'm still paying off my student loan and probably will till I'm 60. Edited by Happy Hooligan - 06 Mar 2012 at 11:33am |

^^Agree with Matt and Bob.Ran, dont know how relevant this is to your situation, but I (like Rivet) went back to college after many various unskilled jobs and finally got a degree (fine art). But never used it and instead got into the industry I worked in (temping) to fund my degree (nursing/support-work). After ten years, got fed up so self-funded some Drystone-walling courses whilst honing my work shifts around them. The recession hit 6 months after qualifying so just went for the first job offered (green-keeping). I've done many other odd jobs both in the UK and spent years working abroad doing various seasonal work after buying a one-way ticket somewhere with the determination to fund-as-I-go travel. It can be done.Self-belief and graft and the willingness to push yourself a little further than the next guy are the things that will get you there. What have you got to lose?

Thank you all. I think I still have plenty of years ahead of me and judging by all your replies, I really should just learn to be more resilient than what I currently am and grind in more hard work. I think what I really needed was for someone to hear me out and offer opinions, as opposed to me solely ranting. I am definitely very grateful for all the precious opinions from you guys who have definitely got a lot more experience in life than I have. Thank you once again, time to work at this!

25 was one of the worst years of my life. That age is funky. You are on the bottom rung of adulthood. Anyway, the next year I met my wife, graduated college (finally) and landed my first career job. Life turned on a dime that next year.

Oh have I been there before. Ebay muppets. You think if you exclude certain countries then they wont find you. But they do. They're breeding like rabbits y'know. Mark, doesn't Kevin get fed up with you buying expensive stuff, then sellin' most of it a few month's down the line at a loss, or do you do all the ebay legwork??
