I made a mistake with the thread title. I personally found college was a waste of time, money and effort. $40k debt interest and growing for two years since completing college degree. Part time and casual jobs waiting tables, retail,factory jobs, volunteering work and labouring jobs. Engineering degree would have been so much better than a Business degree. A trade would of cost less than college degree and would have lead to a career in skilled manual labour work. College degree guarantees a high paid job and successful career is absolute crap. The billionaires CEOs, company directors and senior managers distort the average earnings of college graduates. By removing the outliers that inflate the averages, the average salaries for college graduates is reduced. |
You said engineering would of been better? I ran into a former engineer from IBM who did my taxes at Jackson Hewitt (like h& block) who got laid off by IBM and hopes to make a go at accounting now. No guarantee he has work now.
