Lookback: After spring break realization

Dropped out of college due to financial struggles

I realized I couldn't afford my dream job and the lifestyle that comes with it, leading to feelings of regret and uncertainty about my future.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew the true cost of living and the competitiveness of my desired career before committing to college."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to re-evaluate your financial situation and consider alternative paths that align with your goals and budget."
