Dear Andrew, how are you doing? It's been a while we talked and I miss hearing your throaty laughter and your words of wisdom and I kind of need them right now.

The thing is, after secondary school, I'm confused on what next to do. I have two options right now: go to university, or learn a trade. Hear me out first, because at this point I'm fairly certain of what you'll say, but if you hear my points, maybe you would reconsider.

As the first child of the family, there are certain sacrifices I have to make for my other siblings of which education is one of them. A trade seems the sensible way out because I have the chance to learn hands-on from a person that is already into the business and in a few years, I would establish my own trade.

I understand the importance of university education, but given the high rate of unemployment, I feel it's too big a gamble for me to undertake right now.

I could do with your advice, big fella.

                                                                                       Yours sincerely,

                                                                                         (Your name)
