The entry-level "skilled" positions are a pain in the ass to find. Basically the only ones you get are shitty sales jobs (which Classyposter apparently is super pumped about) and jobs that require no degree at all (and thus pay terrible).

Nobody is going to want to front capital to a 18 year old with no education in today's economy unless they're onto something big (probably technology oriented)

That applies to nearly nobody. Nice try, though.

Private schools are more expensive. Period. It doesn't matter how you try and spin it.
