Welcome to the truth about university. It gives you more debt than you can handle, and a job that doesn't pay enough.

I feel that.

Spent 5 years in college, had to drop out because I ran out of money, now I work a dead-end job in retail for shit pay and like 70k in debt.

Don't do college, kids. It ain't worth it. Or, rather, do college but do community (or a trade school).

On the contrary, the pay would be more than enough for me (single and alone) but actually getting the job is the hard part.
