Really? You seem very sure of yourself, partner. 'Cause I started an engineering company shortly after grad school, built it up to the level both domestically and internationally where it was attractive to a major telecom provider, sold it and retired at 39. Nary a dime of gubmint money was involved. In fact, I never borrowed a dime, ever. It never ceases to amaze me how people don't know what they don't know, yet they think they know everything from a few dozen words.

Let me guess, you're an Ivy Leguer?

Wow, I guess I should have put a sarcasm tag on that sucker. As a fellow state school engineering grad (BSEE-Purdue) I was trying to agree with you in an amusing way.

The Ivy League doesn't look too bad on this ROI Chart.

When you consider you may not pay any more to attend an Ivy than to attend a public college it's a good opportunity if you can get in.

Getting in is the hardest part.
