If you want to use data in your discussion, access exists to microdata, and the ability to pull custom reports.

I try to be respectful and informed.

I'm going to a University, and I already know most of the time that diploma means SHIT. Some people aren't even going to go in the field they studied for, or, they're looking for jobs in the wrong places. Going to college means shit. It doesn't guarantee a good path, meaning, some people won't earn more money.

And this is the sad truth. Nowadays college education is so depraved that it means almost nothing. If you have friends and connections you are just fine. They want diploma for basic office work.

there are just some situtions when people left the college and even so earnt a lot of money, but the is more successful people who dedicate a lot of years to study. Study hard and you will get the results, the problem is the education system, in USA the college is the more expesive on earth, but why the ''richest'' country on heart cannot do something about it??? just leae the young people without giving the chance to have decent college studies, but in other case Sweden the tuition is free, because they know the valuable recourse on a country are the people and the students.
How does Sweden determine who goes to college and who doesn't?  Can anyone go who wants to, or is it very selective?

In the US, it's a supply and demand problem.  Demand for a college education keeps increasing, and the student loans business and government enable it by approving a lot of loans that perhaps they shouldn't approve.  It seems like a lot of times, more emphasis is placed on getting a college education than on getting a good or worthwhile college education.

Anecdotal experience is anecdotal.

Are you really retired, or just not working for now?

Done! Bought a few thousand btc early on, sold at 250 and 1000 and have retired since.
I have a few properties, a healthy bank account and a few old school cold wallets put away for safe keeping! Wink
For all intensive purposes I've retired. I do however maintain 3 rental properties that I own, some people call that work. I call it living!

Viva la Bitcoin and Cloakcoin!

That's not the case. Not everyone has the same intelligence or ambition. Some will be more successful than others given a college education.

You wont be successful if majority took the same route. I say chance like a lotto ticket because its not a guarantee to a job.

But you`ll have to pay $20k thats for sure certain. Keep in mind, that you cant or erase for file a chapter 7 bankcruptcy on student loans, so people planning not to pay back good luck with that.

And by the time you made your money in a white collar job, your not really enjoying esp when your old as hell.

You mind as well take that route though, if you dont have a plan to make some real money. People settle for whatever, some people settle for $30,000 per month its up to the person.

What does old have to do with anything? 

The guys have the money but the reason they don't get to enjoy their money is because 99% of them are married to women and the women are the ones who get to enjoy the money.  A lot of white collar professionals out there with money-spending wives and four kids who would be happier if they had remained a bachelor and spent their money on cars, boats and hot escorts.


That's a sad outlook on life.  I would have more money if I didn't have a family, but there's no way I'd make that trade.  What's the point in having a lot of money if you don't have someone to share it with?

Quite a statement; the bachelor life is fun but a bit empty, building things on the "long term" is more difficult thus more interesting

Stability and children do bring happiness with the correct state of mind and conditions

Simple answer is no.
