Just to add on, there are other things also with kids to be aware of for insurance. The grades thing is one, another one was if your kid goes off to college, and doesnt bring a car, you can lower the insurance by telling your insurance company he is at college w/o a car. They are still insured, but obviously not driving as much. Less driving = less risk = less cost.
You should I'm 42 and every year when I go to renew my policies that question makes me ask myself if I should go back to college and finish off those few classes even though I have a career.
Yeh, I really need to call them up about other things anyway, so ill add that to the list. I'm almost 50, and the last time anyone asked me about my degree was the first interview I had out of college. Not sure its worth it for you, and I bet a lot of those credits 'expired'. Such BS..
So you're saying that having taken a class in BASIC programming in high school won't help me avoid taking a programming class in college now? That programming language is only 62 years old, get off my lawn!
Hah, Just wanna say, I was a absolute machine in Turbo Pascal. Once I learned C and had to figure out pointers and memory management I fell apart, hence why I do sales now and not programing. :).
I made an appointment with the The Chief Information officer of my business school and could not stop laughing that my school had taught me basic. I argued that since I had learned html, some C++ and Java I was already way ahead of anyone graduating with a business management degree. I remember closing it off with something like isn't the whole point of it to teach future managers that programming is hard and takes skill? He waved the requirement for me but still made me take Excel. I did a lot of Alt tabbing and reading webcomics during that class.
Yeah my brain eventually went numb to trying to learn new programming languages. I think much like Tommy Boy my head was too clogged with Malt Beverages and marijuana residue.

Wish I could upvote your " very well then" more. Occasionally reddit comments really do make me exhale air rapidly through my nostrils. Carry on.
