I’ve never done the math, but in college I had a coop and an additional job (or two) for most of it. I have been told it was “impossible” before though.
I worked enough I rented a whole apartment with my now wife, and we both graduated with about 3K in loans each. Prices are different at a Canadian college than an American university though.
I rode my bike to work and school.
It was busy but I never felt overwhelmed. Maybe I was too focused on getting it done, I’m not sure.
I agree that having a family is way worse in the personal time sense. Kids are a huge emotional/energy suck too. Way different than being busy at work.
