let's say you had a decision to make. the two choices are: go to school for a 4-year degree, all expenses paid; collect a windfall to the tune of $400k. you can only choose one, as choosing one will negate the other. also, you would be expected to work in the field you choose to be educated in; the windfall would be enough to retire on if invested wisely (also, you can't work after the windfall and going to school would be a waste of time since you'd be unable to use that education).

which do you choose and why?
My question is why you wouldn't be able to work after you collected it?

I would take the cash but I am curious about that^^^^
