You can enlist and get the military to pay you to learn a trade / skill. Get all your education paid for and be promoted / rewarded on merit / hard-work. I didn't even graduate from high school. I have a GED.

Edited to remove SH not promoting college. It seems he does seem to think its a waste. I don't feel that way nor should anyone else.
I hope nobody spends 150K on flight training. I will agree with the military as an option if your personality agrees with it. Plus, I think there is a way to enlist and then go to college to get a degree paid for by the military. I'm not opposed to this option either but I believe you are committed to a certain number of years after.
