<prompt> Human: Im planning on going to trade school and doing a trade first for awhile then getting my truckers license and Im wanting to hear about other peoples experience but Im also considering going to college for forestry but trade school seems to be the better option. Is it.  <response>: It truly depends on your life goals. For you, yes, a trade is a better route. For me wanting to get into scientific research, not-so-much. I rely on that 100K education to even have a job opportunity.
