Does anybody else think the following is a travesty?

I’m extremely good at giving people advice on their personal problems, and very dedicated and compassionate, as well. Friends often turn to me for help, and I’ve helped more than one cope with serious difficulties. Yet, before I could start practicing as a clinical psychologist, I would have to go to school for five whole years and take on debt of thousands of dollars at least. What a waste, when I could start practicing effectively right now! I’m extremely well-versed in the Jewish religion and history, and very adept at building community and pastoral counseling. Debt yet to become a pulpit rabbi, I would have to go to school for 4 years and take on thousands of dollars into. What a waste! I’m very skilled at understanding the strategy of high finance and politics. Yet, to get a decent start in either, I need to work for free for a year, OR get a grad degree from a top school that costs $ 75,000 per year. I would end up with thousands of dollars in debt, and uncertain job prospects.
