Usually anything you learn there gives you good job experience and you can use it later to upgrade if you do want to go to University. My opinion is that the biggest mistake people make is going to university straight out of highschool and meandering through arts for 3 years accomplishing nothing, and spending oodles of money, only to change their mind. It's okay to not know what you want to do at that age, and theres more than the education to university. But I laugh at all my friends who have student loans of $50 g's, payments for the next decade, and are working a job that a highschool grad could do.

I have to agree with you. I spent 2 years in university right out of highschool wasting alot of time and money. If I had to do if over again I think I would of took atleast a year off after highschool.
