College Tuition: Ten Ideas For Better Ways To Invest/Spend Your Hard Earned Money

Since you would be living with roommates anyway, it would be a lot smarter to get a 4-bedroom condo or house and start renting out rooms. You will likely live for free and may even have enough money to buy multiple places.

Since you are living for free, I'd learn how to get a skill. Since you are in real estate, maybe a contractor, or builder, or electrician, or AC guy might make sense. You could also shadow people in other careers and see what you like/what you want to do.

Not easy, but shoot your shot.

I still think a 4-year degree is worth it. But, don't pay much for it. Get a scholarship. Go to community college and state school, unless you qualify for a great scholarship at a private school.

There are so many things you can do. You're already in real estate. You could have a club promotion business(since you are young). You can start AirBnb's. Whatever.

Maybe film yourself learning your trade on Youtube. Or film and document your journey in real estate.

Do the same as #6 in the print version.

Be a vagabond for a while with some money. You'll see the world on the cheap and learn a ton.

Use the money you have to get into certain social circles. Marry a few levels up and you will have the network of your dreams.

This can be free. And it could be a business for you too. Make websites or applications for others.
