I could really use some advice on whether I should get a university degree or go to college. I immigrated to Canada about 3 years ago, so many things which maybe obvious to you are certainly a mystery to me.
I am about 24 and when I came here I went to adult school and got my high school diploma now I am in first year of electrical eng at university of Toronto. Sometimes I think maybe it’s too late for me to go to university but then I don’t care about it if its my best option. Recently I started to think to go to a collage and take a construction course which is only 2 years and start my on renovation business with some financial help from my father. But that won’t give me any real academic education of course. if I continue on the same path which I am going right now I would end up with a bachelor degree and probably make like 50 a year and that’s guaranteed . But if I go to the construction business it’s a little bit risky. I can be my own boss and there are good chances that I can make much more than that. Also I could lose the business and end up with nothing.
These thought are blowing my mind and I don’t really have any one to give me an advice and I don’t know what to do. I would really appreciate any comment on this subject.
