Definitely do it. Education is important regardless of what you see yourself doing with your life. Obviously you don’t need to pay to learn stuff, but good programs/professors can seriously broaden your perspective forever. Plus you’re going to meet tons of people along the way.
Don’t get me wrong, your time and money would be equally well-spent just buying a one way ticket out of the country and backpacking around for as long as you can. These also aren’t mutually exclusive.
Money stops a lot of people from doing shit they really, really wanna do. Experiences are priceless and money isn’t fucking real, anyway.
I’m for doing as little work as possible, forever
