What should I do with my life? 28 years old, almost (finally) finished my AA but don't know where to go from here. I took several years off and basically did 1 or 2 classes at a time while I worked full time. All the fields that pay well have very intensive programs (engineering, medical stuff, etc.) so at this point it feels like it will never end. Should I just get a bullshit bachelors (history) or actually try to do a more intensive field of study?

Tl;dr - please halp

Depends on how motivated you are. If you are low-energy kind of person, getting good at a bullshit major to the point where you can start teaching in this field seems like a way to go. If you are high-energy, get your shit together and aim for more intensive field.

I also think my other issue is not being able to dedicate myself full time. I worry about taking on shitloads of debt (live with my girlfriend and don't want her to have to finance my ass while I go thru school) in order to be able to focus on school 100% of the time.

Do people generally just saddle themselves with debt so they don't have to work while in school full time?

Yup, people either get into large student loan debts or if they come from rich family, they'll be on a trust fund.

I have found that if you do neither of the above, the school faculty will never understand why are you not focused on the study, so they start giving you shit for it. Best solution is to pick some sort of e-course or part-time course where you can work and study at alternating days.

history isn't a bullshit bachelors

This is exactly what I was afraid of. I'm terrified of sinking myself into shitloads of debt for this. God damnit. Well thanks, anon.

By bullshit, I mean "no job prospects whatsoever." History would actually be my first choice, I love history. It just seems to be a fruitless endeavor. I don't want to make $12/hr for the rest of my life.
