You do not need college to be successful. You really don't. I have a degree in computer science, but I'm fortunate that I get to use what I learned. And my wife and I have those loans to pay back for each of us. I use maybe 2 of the 5 years' worth I spent learning shit. They have completely industrialized it AND watered the education down from what it used to be.

I've been reading personal financing books and they all suggest finding a job and then going to school. At first I thought they were old farts who didn't understand modern times, but their message was surprisingly simple.

Live within your means. You can still make it rich. Credit card debt doesn't have to be a thing. Enter a trade you enjoy and learn everything on the job. Create a budget sheet.

Working in a team is great! It always helps to have someone else to blame.
