    This is so on point. This is why UMPI was so foundational and lifechanging for me. To get the same degree at my local school would've cost me $150,000. To get the MA I got from UMPI, would've cost me over $300,000.

    Police officers in the state I live in only require a GED or High School Diploma. I'm a CNA in a nursing home, I am also a Certified Vet Assistant through Penn Foster. I'm about to use Sophia to start my Vet Tech Degree through Penn Foster... thanks to you I researched last night. Penn Foster is partnered with Sophia. I'm gonna knock out all of my Gen Ed requirements for that program and reduce the cost. I am so happy I found you dude.

    This is exactly what I said. My college degree was useless, I learned everything I needed after I started to work. I did not need my degree.

    I think it’s all deliberately to make everyone a debt slave… in the UK, they are going to extend student loan repayments up to 40 years because many graduates can’t even repay after 20+ years.
    Too many micky mouse degrees and the BS social engineering of these young people… my workplace pays truck drivers an average of $90,000/yr and 5 years ago they scrapped the college degree requirement for becoming a supervisor.
    The only reason I personally would go back to school to complete my degree would be to become a professional like a lawyer or doctor etc… BUT OTHER COUNTRIES fast track their HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS straight into professional school if they meet the entrance requirements!
    The American system is not efficient and it’s very cost ineffective… young people are becoming literal debt slaves, taking home less money than many SKILLED TRADESPEOPLE after you factor in student loan repayments.

    Well I got the 4 year degree but why am I still stuck in minimum wage jobs is because I lack the 3 to 5 years experience in any field other than customer service.

      You gotta plan backwards. A lot of people make the four year degree sound like a job promise. But that's not true. Proper planning, research, and then hard work are the only things that will get you the job you want.

    Most of these jobs I look into want a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. However I have a bachelor’s degree, and was working for a job making just 20 an hour. If I want to go to college. It would be a lawyer, doctor, and a psychiatrist, since you need to go to college to become a lawyer, doctor, and a psychiatrist, since that’s where the money is at.

    At 40 years life span, they can pretry much work until they die at 40 and not seeing a penny from the pension. No wonder employers did pensions

      Lazy employers didn't have to spend as much time looking through resumes. Easy as that.

    • @IamAWESOME3980

      Actually it ain't that simple. It is down to do competitiveness. Most people have a degree now that it went from "wow, you have degree? Impressive, you are above average" to "wait you don't even have a degree, shit you are below average, resume to the trash can"
