saysme, you never know what life will bring you. and parnassah comes from Hashem not a college degree. a college degree is only your hishtadlus in achieving income but it doesnt cause you to have one. i went to college and graduated with a degree in dental hygiene. i also majored in psychology and made the deans list for 4 years in a row. ive been out of school for a year and with all my effort i still havent found work and i have 16,000 dollars worth of loans to pay back. my husband quit college as well. for different reasons then you but he had his own reasoning. he isnt working either. he has no degree or experiene so its hard for him to find work. and since he quit school hes never been the same. his lack of focus has taken a huge toll on him emotionally which in turn effected his ruchnious as well. my sister in law graduated from NYU nursing school more then 10 years ago but she never used her degree. shes instead a stay at home mom and loves it. my point is like this. if you decide to quit school theres no reason to regret it. you can always go back. just make sure if you do quit, you have to have a focus. because as ive seen first hand, not having one can effect you in the same ways you thought you were trying to avoid in the first place. good luck!
