How fucked am I?

Also, ideas related to not having to get one but continuing my educaton. I don't care why the system is bad or what you want to do to fix it. I just don't want to borrow that much money if I can help it.

Look into grants, scholarships, etc. Get a job at the college if they'll cut you a break, and start sucking dick for book money.

Ok, constructive response:
Could you elaborate?

How much is your current debt load?
What is your current educational progress?
What is your current living situation?
What is your educational goal?
What is your professional goal?

Oh man.

If you thought AIDS and the anal seepage that comes as a side effect of the medicine that barely works, was bad. Think again.

Nothing by the time I'll go to school.
~1 1/2 years of graphic design/video game design related courses.
Renting an apartment with my best friend and his girlfriend.
Eventually I want some kind of degree, more interested in working though.
Do some character/level/etc. modeling for a video game company. Side business for other graphic design related things just because.

Well paying job that has a decent enough environment to make me want to come to work, that allows me to live comfortably in a decent neighborhood. I really don't give a fuck what I end up doing in terms of Marketing, Sales, Advertising, or PR.

I do not understand.

But anyway, isn't game design pretty skill-based? If you have the skills you need, why stick around?

In some debt at the moment but by the time the semester rolls around I'll have it (finally) paid off.

It is but the problem here is there is nothing around here really. The schools I'm looking at would help me get a job.
That and I'm novice at best in the grand scheme of things. I can do things my way but that isn't always the best way.

About as much as this car: http://www.lotpro.com/cars/new/chevrolet/tahoe

Graduated.

1 Bedroom apartment on the lake in Chicago

Met it. Graduate with a degree in business.

Get money. Well, more specifically, obtain part ownership of the company I am currently working for.



So far I think I'm doing pretty well. What do they say a good student loan amount is...no more than your salary would be in a single year or two years?
