Well, I agree with your parents in that you need to get a degree. But for most jobs a degree from pretty much anywhere is fine. For technical jobs there are tons of good programs at state schools. That's just too much money.

Disagree. You can be wildly successful by just hustling. I am.
Your top end is limited unless you start your own company.
Not true. Join a startup. Or better yet, learn how to sell yourself. You'll never need a degree if you can sell your passion.
