How do people willingly not want to go to college?

I mean it's expensive and that definitely is enough reason not to go, but if you have the ability to go why not? I just don't understand and I hate that excuse of "my dad didn't go and he turned out alright", yeah that was 20 years ago and now the economy changed and even if you have an undergrad college degree you might not get hired so you should aim higher in your education. Idk. Maybe i'm lacking insight in this currently.

There are other reasons aside from not wanting to go , That is having no other options but to Home School due to a disability .

@Paschar That's true. But I was more so taking about those who are able to go to college, and are well off and are physically abled.

@Paschar Back in the day is a different time from now. Please refer to the paragraph I wrote it explains my whole point.

Now as an online teacher I know the cost of college , My Forum for the dyslexic for an example just to get started cost $26.000 just for the computer adaptive tool technology .
