If you still want to make a career out of it, buy some Big 3 tools at your school discount right before you graduate. The school will have all the specialty tools you'll need while there anyways.
That's the way I did it. Besides, you'll want those cheap tools as backups when your good shit breaks. Remember, one is none and two is one when you really need to depend on something.

This is my opinion exactly. I use Snap on tools at work (provided by my employer) The only thing that it nicer then my craftsman tools at home are the ratchets. Definitly not worth the price in my opinion. A friend of mine who wrenches 40+ hr a week says he prefers craftsman wrenches over Snap on because the snap on wrenches are so thin they hurt his hand.
I'd try to minimize your debt and buy tools as needed or when you have the extra cash. I know way to many people what owe big to tool companies.
