College is a scam at this point. Just check out the cost inflation of the past 30 years, has not matched the salaries, not to mention the underemployment numbers.

Thinking you have to go to college for Art History and drop $100k+ on it is typical leftist idiocy and lemming behavior.

I work as an American welder and make 500k a year. Without us your world would fall apart. That bridge you drive over its held up by other welders like me. That fucking car you drive is held together by my fellow union welding brothers.
I work in the medical gas sector. We weld and prefab all the working gas fittings for hospitals. Without guys like me your surgerys that you pay to go get in the hospital wouldn't happen. I Might even save your life one day because of one of my welds.
You want to know the best part about being a welder though? At the end of the day I can actually hold my hard earned cash in my hands. That's right I can count it and feel it. Unlike these scammy crypto coins that have absolutely no use case and will go no where but zero.
So why don't you do yourself a favour. Put down the laptop and pick up the torch. Ignite the spark to your financial freedom.

This is a misunderstanding of statistics. First of all you aren't applying the cost of college and loans (which is the bad part) compared to earnings and opportunity cost in money you could spend on investments that instead get routed to your loan payment + interest. Second of all, it's true that most stupid or useless people don't get a college degree, but that doesn't mean that not getting a college degree is stupid or useless. Someone with work ethic and foresight is better served going for a trade or CC rather than 50% of degrees at universities that offer no upside whatsoever (like Art, History, Music, etc.).

Also, as I said, it has gotten WAY more expensive in the past 30 years, and WAY more saturated in the past 30 years. Your stats include graduates from 30+ years ago who were actually unique and marketable in their day.

I'm a CS graduate, I'd encourage the technically minded to invest in a CS degree, but I would not encourage most in general degrees to go the conventional route. Most of my friends who did so are underemployed and paying out the ass for student loans.

That's assuming you have investments... with your minimum wage job where you'll be lucky to have a few hundred bucks a month left over.

>and WAY more saturated in the past 30 years
Doesn't that mean that more and more increasingly a bachelors degree is the bare minimum to get a non-shit job? Whereas before an employer would consider you without one now they have so many to choose from that there's no point getting a highschool graduate.

[Anonymous No.15592921]

>>15592898

No, it means a bachelor's in of itself is just white noise because so many people have them. This situation is made worse by how many diploma mills there are now, and grade inflation. Everyone is getting degrees, everyone graduates, even Shaniqua with her 18 on the ACT. The new "degree" is having a good major that still has some prestige, marketability, or scarcity, which means half of all students are wasting their time and money.

Popcorn lung is a rare thing for factory workers making the popcorn butter topping, not vaping. The moisture from vaping nicotine pg/vg is a humectant, no depositing in the lungs.

You haven't used a single statistic in your post just made stuff up.

>First of all you aren't applying the cost of college and loans (which is the bad part) compared to earnings and opportunity cost in money you could spend on investments that instead get routed to your loan payment + interest.
It's median lifetime so obviously considers lost earnings. The average loan is 30k, unless you put it in bitcoin it isn't going to come remotely close to the $1 mil difference

>Second of all, it's true that most stupid or useless people don't get a college degree, but that doesn't mean that not getting a college degree is stupid or useless.
Projection, although obviously true for middle class white people who would have been strongly encouraged to go.
>Someone with work ethic and foresight is better served going for a trade or CC rather than 50% of degrees at universities that offer no upside whatsoever (like Art, History, Music, etc.).
Trades pay fuck all you can see it on the census. Even the best ones like plumbing pay less than teachers, and teaching doesn't fuck you health up.

>Also, as I said, it has gotten WAY more expensive in the past 30 years

It really doesn't matter, wow it almost costs the same as a 3 series instead of a corolla what a huge amount.

>Your stats include graduates from 30+ years ago who were actually unique and marketable in their day.
Yeah and the difference in earnings is getting larger, pic related. The market isn't "saturated" that's you making shit up without checking the reality. The difference in earnings is increasing and there is absolutely zero reason to expect this to stop/reverse.

>Most of my friends who did so are underemployed and paying out the ass for student loans.
Ancedotal and meaningless compared to statistics

Actually I misread it, that was the average loan taken out and a third of people don't take them. The average debt is $20k, same as a generic econobox

[Anonymous No.15593051]

>>15592991

I'm not talking about the "average", which includes people with full ride scholarships, trust fund parents, or poor person grants.

This is for that undecided who isn't going to qualify for much aid and is going to get a degree just because, and promptly find themselves underemployed or in a spot they could have been working without a degree at all.

Let me clarify: if you don't have a real, marketable concentration and goal in college, and are taking out $50k+ in loans, don't bother. You're a sucker who's buying into the "you have to go to college" meme.

Who fucking cares what the official cost is, absolutely no one. Harvard is officially $50k but everyone (who did well at school and considered applying...) knows it's cheap as fuck in reality.

>This is for that undecided who isn't going to qualify for much aid and is going to get a degree just because, and promptly find themselves underemployed or in a spot they could have been working without a degree at all.
You need one for any semi desirable job. Even the ones which pay decently are absolute crap enjoyment wise.

Obviously not ideal, maybe go on a gap year or something but it's necessary for any decent job it's not like most people use the exact knowledge learnt.
