I would like to bridge year my kiddo in a trade like electrician or plumbing, then have him go to college (I'm assuming he's smart enough to make it worthwhile). But that's over a decade away, who effing knows what things will look like.

If I had money, I would purchase an HVAC installation/repair company. I would hire some senior certified folks whose main jobs is to teach/supervise. I then would hire a bunch of high school graduates to five year contracts. My pitch would be I will train you and pay your a fair wage but you promise you will work for me for five years.
If I was 18 again, I'd take a gap year slumming it in Europe or Asia before continuing with career stuff
