Dear John,
Hope you're doing well! A couple of days back, I received your letter and understood that you are confused to opt between a
job
and a graduate study. I'm just writing to express my point of view that pursuing a job
will be the right choice to choose at this
juncture of your life.

has put your family in a tough spot with respect to financial matters. If you push yourself to attend college, knowing you all these years, I'm sure that thoughts about money would loom over your mind and wouldn't allow you to perform well at the college. On top of that, I could sense a phenomenal increase in the college fee for this
academic year.

would help.
