Lucky Robin,
I didn't mean "just a Technical school", I meant "just a couple of options of schools ". That is how I took your post. Sorry for the misuderstanding. I am aware that lots of people do really well from technical schools. I actually have a degree from a technical school (Respiratory Therapy) and it paid the bills for alot of years. My brother is a pilot for a major airlines, he never graduated from college and makes about $350k a year. I know there are lots of options, I just don't want my children to limit theirs based on finances. Which is exactly what happened to me. I went to a cheaper school, got a job that really wasn't what I wanted to do, all because it (the school ) cost the least. I guess we will have to agree, to disagree.
But, I have enjoyed the debate also!
