hahaha... see, for me it was just about getting something, ANYTHING. I failed out of college twice because nothing seemed to spark enough of an interest for me to go to class. When I failed out the 2nd time, I decided I wanted to learn to fly, and maybe in the meantime, I would mature enough to go back to school and actually go to class. So, now I'm at the point, 2 years later, I got 40 hours of "free" college credit back and I'm going to get a degree in something rather than nothing at all. To me, it's worth it.
I don't suggest getting an aviation degree, it just makes sense for me right now.
I would definatley listen to wafly, he's giving the best advice. If you can go back to a real school, get a degree in something that has worth (business, finance, engineering, etc.) and get your ratings/instruct, you're golden.
