I mean it's only a problem depending on the cost of the tools? Renting 4-5k a year worth of tools to make 150k might be ok to some people. While you are at risk of every increasing prices you could just use the time that it's cheap now to when it gets expensive later to educate yourself.

What's the alternative give some college 250k plus crazy interest rates and 4 years of your life?

Just like with all tools blue collar or white they are worth what you can earn from using them.
