Does a GED/HS Diploma really matter?

Question:I have been studying to get my GED, but I still don't have it. This online program can get me a diploma for fashion merchandising and I don't need a GED or HS Diploma to enroll. I'd still kind of like to say I have my GED, but does it really matter? Is it worth the $60?

Answers:
Depends on what you do, but in many cases it does. If you ever want to go to a 4-year university, you need your HS Diploma or GED; you want to join the military, you need your HS Diploma or GED, you want to go into any kinda of public service, you generally need your HS Diploma or GED... see where I'm going with this?

At the very least, it is definately worth the $60. Would you rather wait now and sometime far down the road have someone ask you for that and have that $60 be all that stands between you and a terrific job that you want?
Get your GED. It doesn't matter what field you are going into. That piece of paper will help you in the long run. If you look at an employment application, it will ask you what level of schooling you have. If you don't have that GED, you may get passed over for most jobs. Always have a fall back plan if fashion merchandising or whatever you decide to do in the future doesn't work out.
