Well that right about sucks for people who are looking for jobs without trying to learn any new skills. I know of a college student who took a year off, picked up an HTML book and landed an SEO job within 4 months. Now he is going to school part time and working part time. Within 1 year he went from depending completely on his parents for financial support to being on his own to paying his rent, food, and school. He is 21 years old. People need to understand that they are selling their skills. Especially in this increasingly automated economy.
