My brother is an electrician and has his certifications. He is constantly having new jobs. He makes way more money than he could have with a college degree. He has flat out said that he is glad he didn't just go to a university and actually learned a trade

From a purely economic utilitarian viewpoint, your brother is likely correct. Learning a trade is a terrific way to maximize economic returns. However, there are life experiences he completely missed by not attending a university. It is a trade off that works for him.
