So, your son is finally about to graduate from high school. That’s good news, right? Well, it’s not so good news if your son is one of the many students who are clueless about their future university choices, majors and college courses and degrees. While most high school students (83 percent of surveyed high schoolers) are planning to get a college degree, not all of them are determined to get to college immediately (with over 99 percent of them saying college is more of a long term goal).

If your son is entertaining these ideas about college as well, then sit up straight and pay attention. Do not let your son become a sushi roller or a sandwich maker at Subway or a guy who collects and sells broken electronics for cash. He can do more than that. If you know your kid is a damn talented child who does so many things that he wasn’t able to concentrate on one particular college-ready talent or skill, encourage him to become the jack-of-all trades by getting him the perfect jack-of-all-trades laptop.
