I'm not sure what to do. Personally, I would like to work for a year or two. Any ideas?

Go to college. In the end it will be better because you will be making more money later working then you will now working. Because of the higher pay.

Work, who needs college? If there has to be a law passed that its required you can read to get out of high school, how indepth can college be?

As someone who just graduated with a Bachelor's degree, trust me - it's hard enough finding a job with just that. Definitely go to college if you want to get a decent job! Besides, learning is always good for you.

It definitely depends on the person, but your financial situation and academic goals are important to consider. If you don't know what you want to take in college, working for a couple years might be helpful because you'll be more likely to know what you want to achieve in college, and you won't need as many loans to pay for your (probably expensive) education.

If you know what you want to do with your life, go get a degree in it. If not, work for a while. Just be aware that when you eventually go to college, getting back into the routine of homework and studying will prove difficult.
