      It's great advice though. I'm thankful I didn't go to college right after school because I'd probably be super in debt with a writing/english degree I wasn't really passionate about. wasn't until I was 25 that I realized what I actually wanted to do.

    I love how he mentioned weather and as someone who is originally from the Midwest (Chicago area) but has lived in Colorado most of their life. The weather in Colorado even in the winter is always beautiful and sunny and awesome. If you are coming anywhere from the northeast or the Midwest or the south, the weather will be incredibly nicer because there’s little to no humidity and Colorado has over 250 days of sunshine a year. Only if you are from Southern California or Arizona would I say it’s a downgrade but other than that it’s awesome.

At least STEM, business and ECO majors can expect to be making close to six figures right out the gate, but I think an artist is better off spending that time perfecting their craft rather than getting into serious debt by taking classes that won’t help them that much.

    I've lived away from home for almost a year, but travel was covered for my situation back then, as my 'gap' year comes to a close, I have to start thinking about making a living and attending in this August, and I'm very nervous about the finances alone. VERY nervous. Debt scares me, if I can manage financial aid and avoid loans, I'd feel so much better, but the drive alone to Boulder is driving anxiety out the roof, especially with how bad the roads got this past storm in the Southern half of Colorado, that wasn't hit nearly as hard as the Northern half.
