Interesting thread. How many times have you seen on this forum the phrase "tow the line"?

I have an Associate Degree myself, plus an additional three years or so in pursuing various vocational pursuits.

I'm no expert speller. But I refuse to use spell check software. I keep a dictionary readily available. I have to use it often, either to check the spelling of a word or find out what a certain word means.

Without going into detail, I would just suggest that education is important. Riding motorcycles, as most people here do, leaves us open to events that can have dramatic effects on our lives and employment opportunities. A accident can cause a person's life to be altered in almost every aspect.

And right now, regardless of what the Prez believes, the economy and our very way of life is undergoing changes that would have been unbelievable a few years ago. And an education can be very helpful if a person's abilities, or their profession, lose importance in the 'new world'.

I have a B.A. and two associates degrees.

BS in Criminal Justice, University of New Mexico, 1985. MBA, Central Michigan University, 1995. And I'll trade the MBA for a box of Cuban Monte Cristos--that thing has been worthless as tits on a bull to me. I just got it so I could make Major in the Air Force.......but then I got out before I even pinned on the oak leaves. Couple thousand dollars down the crapper. Absolutely no need for it whatsoever in my current job.

I have an AS & BA, and plan on going to law school when I retire. I think that having an education is important, and it opened my eyes to a lot of different things. Just because someone doesn't have a degree doesn't make them a dolt. I've met some folks that didn't have a degree and they are far more intelligent than a HUGE majority of folks; and far more intelligent than I could ever hope to be.

I graduated high school and went to a junior college. I graduated with my A.A. and went on to university. I drifted there, mentally and physically, because that is not where I wanted to be. One semester before my commission into the Army I got thrown out of school. In retrospect it was a stupid thing to do, but it worked out for the best. I got a job as a CNA at the V.A. I then enlisted in the Navy where I became a Hospital Corpsman. I thought I would return to school and I did, here and there, amassing almost two hundred hours of credits. I've never finished my bachelor's degree, but it hasn't slowed me down. I consider myself to be well educated despite my lack of a degree.

On a side note, my brother who graduated from a local community college will more than likely make $1M this year. He runs his own company, is an exacting technician, and his services are in high demand worldwide. Last month he billed more on one project than I will make all year. I am extremely proud of him.
