you must have been shit poor and dumb. i paid my way through community college on minimum wage while also paying for my own apt. ended up with a 4.0, so i was able to transfer to the state flagship with grants. didn't pay a penny for the bs. then i got into stanford for my phd and they paid me 50k+ (more if i taught a particular year) +medical and subsidized housing to do it. if i, who was kicked out of my parents house at 18, could do it, i think anyone can.
