I am skeptical to institutions of higher education, such as colleges and universities. Pic related is the sort of crowd one might come across.

But it cannot be all bad if people still chose to go? For instance, if you want to be an accountant, you need a degree?

Yes you need a Bachelor's or do trade school minimum.

I am curious what /biz/ thinks about the following masters degrees
>ms computer science
>ms electrical engineering
>MBA

Don't listen to pol retards. Look up "average earnings with education".

In muttland the average college educated person earns double the average high school graduate, in the uk where I live the difference is nowhere near that big (but it's still worth going)

People tend to forget that degrees teaches you 0 work experience.
I have my own company and in interviews they always brag that they spent 5 years studying and places 20+ papers on my desk, but when asked what they actually know then they rarely give any good examples.

In software, learning a platform or language is far more superior than wasting 5+ years studying.

I got my master in software engineering and I got blown the fuck out by kids who dropped out after HS and learned on their own. I didn't know shit about how to adjust to platforms or companies.

Degrees are overrated.

The humanities are full of retards, the rest is mostly fine, as far as I can tell.

So as long as you are into business/law/science/med/engineering you're good.

Just be careful not to go to a shitty SJW Uni.

Fortunately, if you're into the humanities you can get a top tier education just through reading the relevant literature yourself.

No-one needs a degree in the humanities/arts. It's a total meme.

If you have talent in the arts, you can move straight into the market.

If you want a job somewhere the humanities are relevant, a degree in anything else would be better, just be sure to do your reading.

>no degree required
>needed in literally every industry
>needed in most facets of life (e.g., dating)
>top salesmen are among the highest paid in any company
>work harder = more money
>sweet incentives for meetings quotas like gifts/cash giveaways
Biggest benefit imo:
>save a shit ton of money not falling for sales tactics, yourself.

Downsides
>bad sales week = shit/no pay
>people skills required
>moralfags need not apply
>can be high pressure to perform
>your pay/commission structure can get fucked by management
>marketing can be retards
>timid salesmen have skinny kids.

Nepotism.
This is one of the main reasons for the downfall of western culture in the last 20 years.
Nepotism has been made illegal to suit the equality/diversity narrative.
There's a reason names like Smith, Mason & Goldberg we're given over thousands of years.

What you learn from a degree is not important, how much work you have to put in to achieve a degree is everything. The harder the degree the more worth it has.
It's a litmus test for being trusted at higher positions in a company.

You figured out the game, anon.

Sales is hard. But you can make it big if you try.

Steps involved:

1. Join local public speaking club
2. Read everything by Cialdini
3. Read everything about Account Management concept
4. Read everything about good communication (or just copy what Trump does).
5. Dress properly - buy a fucking suit.
