Hello everyone, currently I am a 22 year old college student who works at a phone company with some good benefits some of them which include tuition reimbursement. I get paid around 40k a year working 32 hours a week. But my dream is to be a software engineer and the starting salary for software engineers is 70k realistically and I’m pretty sure I can get more than that if I really put my mind into it because really big companies recruit at my school. After recently starting my semester, I have noticed that this job is time consuming and some weeks I can work 40 hours a week and my classes are quite demanding. I have around 10k in my 401k and 2k in stocks that I can cash out before I quit. I currently don’t pay rent, and only have a phone bill and light bill to pay. My plan is to take out student loans for other living expenses and doing postmates, ubereats, instacart, to fill in some of the gaps. I can also study and obtain paid internships throughout this time. Is this a bad idea?
