Not knowing your age...Join the military, do 4 years, get training and education, get out(if still desire) goto college full time and get paid to learn(Post 9/11 GI Bill).

During those 4 years you will be paid well, 30 days paid leave(vacation), all holidays, flex schedule.

Of course you will probably go overseas, but then you get tax free and all kinds of paid benefits and no where to spend it so when you come home your bank account probably has never so much money.

Just a thought....

A degree isn't a guarantee for an oil field paying job either.
