The College Scam

[Hypertrophy]

So basically everything is a waste on getbig? Med school, law school, etc haha

Getbiggers are either winners or losers, majority the latter, nothing in between

Actually a lot of people are saying 4 year college is a waste, but trade schools and two year colleges are not. That sure looks like something "in between"


I ran a tech company in Arizona for 10 years and hired lots of recent college graduates- 2 and 4 years (which now takes 6 years if you look at the graduation rates). The 2 year graduates were the best workers by far since their training was geared to actually doing practical things. The 4 year graduates were so removed from that practical side that my staff and I had to retrain them to actually do productive work. I eventually ended up hiring a few very well trained technical managers and lots of two year graduates.

Depends on your "degree".

I think degrees in Engineering/Architecture/Construction Management are valuable at a certain level.

The higher level master's and Ph'ds in sociology, history and "arts" are entirely a waste of money, unless you want to work in University.

My GF's good friend has a Phd in Sociology and the only job she can get is as a public school teacher or "research" analyst for a local university.

She went to school for 12 years just to make 60k a year and absolutely hates her job.

I made almost 60k a year straight out of college with a BS in Structural Engineering designing foundations, which i could teach a high school kid in about 2 weeks.  My Master's degree has done jack shit for me.

Trade schools are great, i know a lot of people who make good money with them.

EDX offers some great courses for free which are offered by major universities, some of the courses are sponsored by national governments.

Olivia Jade Giannulli, Lori Loughlin's Daughter:


“I don’t know how much of school I’m gonna attend but I’m gonna go in and talk to my deans and everyone, and hope that I can try and balance it all. But I do want the experience of like game days, partying… I don’t really care about school, as you guys all know.”

I hate Lori Loughlin and her spoiled brat kids.

Fuck them and their YouTube influencer bullshit.

But I will watch her get her ass reamed on Pornhub when she starts her porn career.

Thanks for the lead. Will get going on Mandarin.

I'm not especially passionate about it. But in Aus it's time.

Colleges would go broke having only worthwhile degrees.

Most people are not smart enough to take those courses of study.

They couldn't have football or most sports.  And who would use the lazy river float rides?
