Will this help me get a job or no?

5 Comments

I have ROP business certificate I got before graduating HS. I have a fast enough typing speed. I have guard card and guard certificates. I was going to try to get my license and I also am going to go to school an get business administration certificate. Which will take 7 months. So bad idea or good? I thought this might make me more employable. Am I wasting my time and money? The certificate will put me 15,000$ in the hole, and I dont get much financial aid to cover it. My mother cant pay ANY of my financial needs. Even though Fasfa said she should pay some of them. She says its impossible for her to assist me in any way. I get a total of 3200$ in grant money(I dont have to pay back).

    College is the biggest scam there is, and $15,000 is an awful lot of cash.

    I would spend that time teaching myself marketable skills -- online, of course, which is essentially free.

    it depends on what you are wanting to do.
    sometimes these things can help you get a good job right away...or help you advance faster in a job. however that is a lot of money.
    and you need to do your own research for your area. how many jobs are available where you are? what types of jobs are there? what types of jobs will your certificate help the most? how much will these jobs pay so you can pay back your loan? you can even call the jobs you like and ask them any questions you have.

    Join the Army. When you get out, if you don't make it a career, you can use the GI Bill to get a degree. Then you can get off public assistance and start paying for other people to live off your money.
