lol @ NIK thinking he isn't going to need college.


it's called the collapse of the middle class in this society. you're going to have  clear distinction of  the haves and the have nots



it's harder without college, but it's possible to be all right.

especially if you have a hustle.

I'm gonna get a degree and teach. You know who's gonna make more money than me?

Plumbers.
Carpenters.
Locksmiths.
Construction workers.
Cabinet makers.

etc etc.

People who have physical skills/hustles^^^ don't need college.

But in this digital/lazy age, fewer and fewer people have those trades/skills so those of us who take the college path will be often paying the tile layers, house painters, plumbers and locksmiths of the world.

yeah that's why i'm never going to be a teacher, you get all this schooling and you get shitty pay. it's only worth it if you get your PhD or  Doctorates and get to teach at like USC or something ........but what are the chances of landing a job like that? both of my uncles were carpenters and plumbers, and yeah they got paid . but it's not like you necessarily have job secuirity, plus there's a lot of scandolous shit that goes on. yeah you can join a union, but you got to pay dues and shit and the unions at least here in cali, from what i've seen arn't that strong.

and then you got pride to think about.....i'd rather be the mother fucker payin a mother fucker to grout my tile then be the dirty bitch that has to do it for some rich snob. but with me i CAN do my own shit like that so i'll never really have the need to hire a capenter and shit.

damn, i need to learn how to be that shit.

I'm gonna try to do some other shit and actually get paid writing but something tells me that shit is gonna be a bitch.

eh, oh well. thus is the life of an artist.

actually you can, they just prorate it. like you can get paid every month but have smaller checks, or get paid for 9 months and get bigger checks. it's all up to you.

i had teachers in highschool that were wal mart greeters, contruction workers, chashiers, city planners, during the summer.

I have wanted to be a filmmaker since high school, but I don't think that dream is probable, even with my background in television. So I'm thinking I should go to college for IT or business and minor in film. I'm pretty happy with my job right now, working at a liquor store, but I don't see a career in it.

How's this for confused though...my neighbor went to ASU to become a neurosurgeon, but after a year he switched his major and college and is now going to school to be a hotel event planner at some community college. lol

College? All I know is to make money and live...

if you dont go to college you wont make money unless you have a rich family.
i hope you are being sarcastic. otherwise what you said was pretty ignorant. don't get me wrong going to school is good, but isnt the only option.

you won't need to goto college to get by, but if you think you can get through life selling weed and living life day to day, you are kidding yourself. i didnt goto college, went from highschool -> work and make more money now than that 'professional degree' says on the graph. at the end of the day, some people arent good in classroom type learning and self study lets you go at your own pace.

to the dude who mentioned civil engineering, my wife does that and makes a ton of money, but its always been a high paying job here in australia, not sure about the rest of the world.

That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard in my life, and you've been brainwashed.

yeah...many middle class families have brainwashed people to believe you have to get good grades in high school, go to college, do a a profession and so forth.  Then you end up working a 9-5 work day for the rest of your life...

sure college is important, but the most important thing in this world is to be intelligent and know how to get around shit.

Me, I plan on going to going to college, acquire some knowledge and become an entrepreneur of some type. Technically, that doesn't require college but its better to be educated. Anyone can make money if they know how to finance well and handle their cash flow.

Economics and Finance is a great thing to study in college.

Shit I have no idea what I'm going to be doing when I finish college.  I have an AA in Liberal Arts and will procure my BA/BS in Political Science summer '08.  But I'm sick of school as it is.  For my 2 degrees I will be in the hole around 25k.  So essentially I will have paid all that $ for professors to attempt their hardest to indoctrinate me. 

Luckily for me my brother is a basketball agent and I may get into that if the opportunity presents itself.
