College is not worth it if you are a low IQ fool who prefers to spend time partying . For a intelligent kid with life goals it's more than worth the price. If I had a intelligent kid going to college the. Subjects I'd recommend: engineering, acturial science, doctor, dentist, chiropractor, optometrist, pharmacist. If I had a fool kid wanting to go to college, I'd tell him to get a 2 year certificate in plumbing or HVAC. Or help him buy a small franchise like pest control or help him set up a insurance agency. Fact is some kids have no business being in college. The govtm should eliminate college loans for the stupid. College has become another avenue to pile on debt on the unwashed indentured masses.
Perfect example of colleges preying on young people. Become the General Manager of the Boston Red Sox! Check the placement statistics for that program - and combine it with job satisfaction so you're not picking up grads working as hot dog vendors. Colleges can go jump in lake for what they're intentionally doing to wide-eyed 18 year olds. Next for colleges - a major in how to become a porn star.
i learned more about business selling drugs at 15 then i ever did in college. fucking sterile institutional lies they sell you.. go ahead jump into debt and be a cog in the wheel... sure if your going to be some kind of professional it might be worth it... just talk to this girll shes 250 in debt.. got her law degree she can't shoot someone for a job... there are grooves of girls going to nursing school right now... Remington college is blowing up with girls going into the nursing program.. you think there gonna have their pick of jobs when they come out? everyone is thinking the same thing at the same time.. i can't get a job so i'll go back to school... you'd be better of borrowing money and going long term short bonds will all your money.. oh and just wait for the school bubble to end and short that.. you'll make more money then you ever would going to the fucking school
I think a big part of the problem is people expect to be given a job. They would be better off starting their own business. Why is it someone else's responsibility to give them a job. At the end of the day they have to take responsibility for themselves.
Some kids have no business going into business. College creates worker bees-- there are 95 worker bees for every entrepreneur--- entrepreneurs can not exist without worker bees from colleges. surf
in this life.. you make your own way... the educational system is sold to the public as a security blanket for their financial insecurities.. Financial insecurities have nothing to do with finance.. they are a manifestation of a bad self esteem.. i agree with you totally... the public has been spoon fed credit, a high standard of living, and the expectation of instant gratification.. any entrepreneur knows that most opportunity is missed because it is dressed up in overalls and looks like work! plus most people are lazy.. they see a complexity hurdle and they cower. people don't really wanna know the mechanics of how things work or be instrumental in adding value to them... they just wanna get back to being given shit! this whole "lets finish what we started" Obama ideology is going to work.. people are stupid!
yeah your right... so fuck it.. think about it... in a couple years we will have access to cheap educated desperate worker bees to exploit!! such a good point....
i like this. and the one you posted just before this. you should start a blog. luv it that u sold drugs and learned a lot there. i got an mba from a top school but helped steal a car once when i lived in the 'hood.
College was worth it when I was younger. I don't think it's worth it anymore. They say the networking at the top notch schools is worth something, but I guess I never made any really useful friends. I found that networking in the real world was much more valuable.
