If someone wants a life like Andrew Tate, that's their choice. We shouldn't judge them.

There are jobs that pay lots without a college degree, some require specific training, not everyone is going to be "computer savvy" or a techie.  Again, find more info on career paths, some subjects you're interested in and see if those can be adequate for you...

I agree explore different subjects. It's free at both Sophia or Study.com to try whatever subjects you want. I recommend doing a few lessons on subjects out of your expertise to see what's it's like. You never know what you might like or be good at.

Traditional film school is geared toward making a feature film which doesn't help if someone lives in a small crappy small town such as Piedmont, North Dakota.

Kids nowadays mostly want to become social influencers. What skills does this require? Artistic skills such as videography, sound, and lightning. Also, IT skills such as video editing and website development. As well as business skills such as digital marketing. And finally, communication and writing skills.

So if a college could develop a social influencer degree program, I imagine it would be pretty popular! 

Those skills could transfer to other jobs even if they don't make it as an influencer.
