What prompted you to go to a technical school as opposed to a university?

I think it's a very wise choice that is overlooked by too many young people. It's as if we've collectively decided that technical training is low class and isn't something people should aspire to. My father owns a small business as a tradesman, and he has been very happy and mildly financially successful, as well. I think knowing how to do something is one of the most valuable things a person can possess.
