Notes -
I've considered a ton of this!
Agreed on Dress Well, this is something I agree with that I came to far too late in life. Sucks cause my parents tried to help out. In terms of exercise and fitness, I did/do OK on this but could be better.
In terms of speed running college, I'm super into points 1-4. I'm down to help my kids cheat in high school because the material is so worthless and such a waste of time, but there wasn't a whole lot of collegiate course work that was worth throwing away.
One challenge I'd find is that I absolutely loved college, more than my first couple years out of it. Perhaps the deal could be that if they finish in 3 they can hang out and audit classes with their buddies/make money tutoring.
Cheating in college may still be worth it even if the material is worth learning. Writing a thesis is a pain, you don't learn much from the constant re-editing and messing with LaTeX. Having some help on that is useful. And there might be a single course your stuck on (happens to the best).
I didn't love university much, but I can see the point of doing it at normal pace if you enjoy it. I've still have a hard time seeing how 5 years of college trumps 4 years of 25% more college + 1 year doing whatever you want.
