I regret that I never had the discipline when I was younger to get an accredited degree. I've been very fortunate to work for companies where experience and common sense was just as important as a degree, and I've moved up the ladder more quickly than some degreed folks, but I know that's a thing of yesteryear.
I told my boys that I would pay for them a Bachelor's Degree, and if they wanted to continue after that, they were on their own! We will let them live at home and help them as much as we can, but I'm going to make SURE that they get their bachelors!

Bible college was the right thing for us, for what we do. But I definitely wanted my kids to get a college degree. Ashley graduated in 2005 with a degree in International Business, minor in Spanish. Zac is starting his second year of college next week, heading toward a Business major. I'm really proud of them!

That's awesome!
My oldest, Sean, is in his second year at University of Nebraska (First year was community college) going for Criminal Justice, and my second son, Blake, is in his freshman year at Nebraska, going for a Mechanical Engineering degree.
He's making me proud, he's wanted to work with me since he was 8!
