And why would you not want to have a college degree is the question I would ask. If you real an able person, then you would be able to get a college degree in the field you enjoy working in.

There is no execuse for someone not to have one nowadays. You can go to night school and get one. you can get a student loan, you can work part time and go to school part time, etc...

Yes, if you were looking for a GOOD job, not having a degree will hinder you.

Education can very rewarding.
