Comments on: 7 Reasons You Shouldn’t Feel Embarrassed To Attend Community College https://thefrugalgene.com/embarrassed-community-college/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=embarrassed-community-college Born To Help You Save Money Sat, 22 Feb 2020 00:43:53 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.2.1 By: Greenbacks Magnet https://thefrugalgene.com/embarrassed-community-college/#comment-26773 Tue, 30 Jul 2019 19:20:53 +0000 https://thefrugalgene.com/?p=15754#comment-26773 I wholeheartedly agree. I am all about saving a dollar. I would rather put that money saved in the stock market and let it work for me instead of spending a fortune on a fancy degree. If you invest that college money you would have put aside for your kid over 18-22 years, then you could end up with $100,000+ after compound interest does its thing. I would love a big, fat check for $100,000 at age 22!

I too wrote a post that included Halle Berry. On why She and I Continue to Save so Much. I went from saving $1 a day to $13,000 a year.

Nice post!

Do they have community colleges in Vietnam? The stigma is all the way across the world too?

Haha if I got into Hopkins I would have gone there instead of CC too. It’s easier to compare CC to a regular state school.

Ah I didn’t think of that. There is a lot of variety depending on which community college.

Yes, it’s not the most motivating place. I took a few classes in high school, half the class just don’t show up.
