What are the consequences of not having a college degree?

Answer 1

In today's world, there are so many computers, word processors and keyboards, if you don't have the skill to type, even using this answers.com website would be 'slow going'. Sending email would take a long time and would be tiring, since you would have to keep going back to check your spelling. Typing papers for school or work would take much longer, and most of today's higher paying jobs require you to be able to type at least 35 words a minute, just to get the job. This answer took me over 15 minutes to type, because I don't have 'skills'. Go on and take a class; you'll be glad you did.

Having typing skills definitely opens doors to your getting a higher level of job than otherwise. This is not just because you can pass the test, but you will be able to do your job in a more competent fashion. For most of us, spell check is a tool that helps our writing, so that part of life becomes less of a problem.

Answer 2

Well, having gone to and finished college myself, I would say the consequences would be that u start making money quicker, and don't put yourself in a heap of debt... as far as how much more money it allows u to make in the future, I respecfully disagree... college just makes sure u r broke for at least 4 years of your early 20s.

Interpersonal skills are critical to an individuals success, not only within the workforce, but in life. That being said, if you do not have people skills, and not willing to work on them, I would strongly advise you find a career where you do not have to deal with people. It will be difficult. In order to accomplish most issues in life, you need to have good writing and oral communication skills, and able to work within a diverse population.

Answer 4

You are unlikely to be in paid employment.
