It really depends on your environment and circumstances
I think that if you can get your education payed off (or you get to pay it at a low price) it’s 100% worth it.
The problem is with paying for college and getting the most out of it via networking , education , and scholarships (lots of other things but these are the biggest ones)
Now I will also say that if you are truly passionate for a profession. But do not have the finances it’s still going to be worth it. Most people with such passions always find a way out.
If you are going to college because you think you have no other option; my suggestion would be to just to go to trade school. It’s cheap , you will earn money , and it’s not as hard as other education paths (it’s still not “easy” )
