Publisher's Synopsis
Half the young men and women who enroll in America's four-year colleges each year drop out--2 million in all. Instead of the criticisms hurled at some, they deserve the heartiest congratulations for making wise, forward-looking, mature career decisions. Quite clearly, most young Americans do not belong in college; it's a waste of time for most. The average student (or his parents) pays as much as $75,000 a year to attend college but spends more time in recreation than in academic pursuits according to the U.S. Department of Labor. So, far from being losers, most college dropouts are big winners by choosing to begin fulfilling, well-paying careers instead of wasting time at college. For those still searching for that perfect career, this amazing little book shows those who abandoned academics how to find a career they will not only enjoy, but from which they'll likely earn more--often much more than in careers demanding college degrees.
