Mostly same old adequate advice repackaged with a few slight twists.
I do agree that 401k is a great savings plan and everyone if they have the opportunity should participate. However I do not consider it an investment plan.
I agree that for most people, going to college should be considered as a way to gain the skills you need to get a decent job. Also people should not be afraid of the hard work required to gain a degree in "STEM" Science, Technology, Engineering, Math. Overall the pay and job availability can be better. Also as a country we need more people to go into these fields if we are going to advance.
