For someone your age apparently you have never learned the core value of failing. Everybody does, you either give up or you pick up and try harder. As far as working at 14, its the value of hard work and good work ethics ibe learned. I have no college and make $80k a year in a cheap place to live. Anywho, you dont have to write a book about it and college degrees are becoming useless now that everybody is getting them.

What time away from your kids? You just claimed to work 62 hours per week.
I get off work before they get outta school.

Now I'm curious as to what you do. I'm guessing oil and gas mining, or possibly driving a truck.
And hard work won't take you far. If you're not management material, your career is already dead in the water. Does your company promote people to management with just a ged?

Well, i guess it depends on how well you can connect the dots so to speak. To me, if you want to learn something, you go to a library, if you want to party you go to college, Einstein said that once, im a firm believer.
Maybe not your hard work will pay off, but mine will. Im not trying to live life making someone else rich and paying off ridiculous student loans for a masters degree. Sure, right now im making someone rich working for someone else, but atleast i wont be skimming by paying off student loans doing it. But anywho, good luck!
