>intellectual enrichment

Step 1. Locate a gas station or convenience store that isn’t busy
Step 2. Get your degree online WHILE you work
Step 3. Retire as a rich accountant when you’re 40

???

>he didn't bracket after intellectual enrichment "hopefully"
Disappointing, and without a sense of humour.

How do you get hired at a business that doesn't need any more employees?

I used that same textbook for my intro to micro class freshman year.

>room and board might be less at college than living on your own
on what fucking earth? Whoever wrote this should be killed. I don't think we should just blanket tell people "go to college," but if you're going to, fucking be honest about it.

>>16713800
He said might be. The point is that you are going to be paying "room and board" regardless if you're in college or not. The big idea is that you have to give up something to get something I think

>>16713672
It's highly praised

>He said might be.
which is an absolute lie, look at how much it costs to live at any american university that forces you into a dorm with a mealplan as a freshman.

>>16713825
You really can't get over the fact that this is just an example, can you?

College debt is a giant epidemic in the US driven by the lack of info given to young adults. Literally as soon as they legally able we try to sell them into debt that lasts for literal decades on average. Yes, I am upset about the normalization of something objectively bad and overtly dishonest.

I’m just an ignorant uneducated retard tradesman who grosses 11 million a year for the company I work for

Should have went to college because those who can, do; those who can’t, teach

>>16713603
That’s a bitch excuse, there are places hiring near you, you’re just a chicken shit pussy, but do not worry it won’t last forever, your nuts will eventually drop

And remember those who are afraid of losing never win

>>16713603
hope the economy grows and businesses expand so they need more employees

>>16713859
You’re right, you weren’t worthy of a higher education, need to stop people like you from ruining more institutions

>>16713874
Why are you upset at the notion of being realistic about the costs of college to prospective college students? I'm not anti-college, I just don't think we should treat it like High School 2

>>16713394
>I bought a college textbook on microeconomics to learn
that's where you made the first mistake. read Smith, Ricardo, follow up with Marx's Wage Labor and Capital, Value Price and Profit, end with Capital (all 3 volumes). at this point pat yourself on the back because you know more about economy than all assorted neoliberal talking heads

>>16713908
economics boils down to a sentence. "People respond to incentives, the rest is commentary."

or he could not waste his time and just read one book and get 99.9% there

Serious question
What's so bad about being in debt?

>>16713825
Not necessary. Factors come into play like what college you attend. Sure it's extremely expensive, but it's extremely expensive to literally live anywhere that isn't in the middle of nowhere.

Serious question
What's so bad about being free from the jews?

>>16713603
Know the owner

If you're measuring your life on those terms you will always be a slave unless you go full Ted K.

>>16714221
Well mate I am young and I have no debt. I will buy my first house cash after college. One shot bam. 300k cash boom buy a nice house before 30yo. I won't be a slave to jews my friend.

>>16714236
People thought like that in the past before the economy shat itself. Happens constantly
If you're not rich, you're not safe

>be 2018
>throw 10k to TSLA and another 5k to AAPL
>retire by 2028
