I think it's still a big risk not to go to college. Fine if you really know what you want to do, but if you don't you could end up a lot worse off than if you just went to college and majored in something useful 

This is a reasonable approach. Although, my memory of myself at the time was that I wasn't super reasonable about my choices. Perhaps your approach could help with that.
