[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1724101, member: 21382"] Those Liberal Arts degrees are money well spent by the American taxpayer I am sure. I would say out of the 10 most successful people I know ( business/ money wise) half didn‘t graduate high school. My wife is one of 3 kids. Her parents offered to pay for her college and she declined. Did it all with scholarships, hard work and student loans has a diploma and a doctorate ( a real one Buck since I know how particular you are). They paid for the other 2 neither one finished. Is it about opportunity, obviously not. I have been self employed for 20 years. Started with a beat up truck, a hammer and a hand set of post hole diggers. If I borrowed money I repaid it and have invested 3 college educations worth back into it. Got a fair amount more than that now and could have a lot more materially and financially but I have chosen to gauge my success in a different manner. I am not in any way trying to brag and am well aware I have been blessed. I am only pointing out it wasnt handouts that got me blessed it was hard work and good fortune. [/QUOTE]
