You are not your parents' generation. You don't have to have a degree by 22 years old and be starting a professional career. In fact, I advise against it. Not many of us know ourselves well enough at 18/19 to pick a career you want to spend the rest of your professional life in. It's way too big of a decision for an 18 year old to make, who's never done #### besides go to high school and work at Applebee's.

My advice: get out of the country, see how people really live, try out a bunch of jobs, don't worry about money, come back home broke with a bunch of good stories and some direction, then worry about university (and if it's even still applicable).
