I would go as far to say that not one person naysaying the value of a college education has one. Sure there's guys in theit early 30s with trade jobs that do better than me financially speaking but the glaring factor being overlooked is the fact that they work twice as many hours in order to make that money. I mean if that's your mission in life then by all means work yourself to death but as for me, I prefer a more reasonable balance in life. I'll take the 80 grand lifestyle workin 35-40 hours a week and let those wanting to break their back 70 hours a week for a 100k get all they want. Whether it pays 40 grand or 400 grand, pursue what makes you happy. You'll never be worth a be nice at doing anything you don't like and you'll certainly never be able to compete against those in the same field that have a genuine passion for that occupation.
I'll take that bet. :lol2:
I have no problem with a college degree, it's how people go about acquiring them. I've been there. Most of these kids could pay for college on their party budget and these colleges don't need the facilities and bs they have to teach what they need to.
There are some jobs that need the class room hours but a lot don't. They take advantage of young people and promise them the moon. Many never get close.
