I thought that the Dakotas was where all the new oil was.
My daughter got her JD and passed the CA Bar.
Starting salary: $79K and had a raise in the first 6 months.
OK, OK, OK...
Clearly you have never stared your own business by your own lack of supporting argument.
Who needs $100,000 to start a business at age 18?
Wasn’t the University of California system back in the 1960’s tuition free for qualifying State residents? I seem to remember that for some reason. Any sort of college education outside the Ivy League used to be affordable to families with a bread winner with a decent job, or with student loans that didn’t leave the borrowers crippled with debt for a couple decades. We are so lucky to have been born when we were.
My daughter who will graduate with a ChemE degree next spring calls that a Mrs degree.
I did some of that years ago. Then everyone took the seminars thinking they would get rich quick and too many buyers flooded the market.
The competition to get into pharmacy program is unreal from what I have heard.
Pharmacy is ripe for disruption IMO. Any drugs that arrive at the store ready to consume could be easily dispensed. Would not be surprised to see drug companies put vending machines in clinics and hospitals.
“Here are the Best College Degrees for Homeownership?
Wait! Don’t tell me! Let me guess: “Underwater Basket Weaving” and “[fillintheblank] Studies” aren’t in the top ten, right?
South Florida import/export= drug dealer
No degree necessary
Plenty of chemical engineers in Houston out of work or are about to lose their jobs.
Amen, amen, amen.
No community organizers ...pffft....
36 months of military service qualifies you for a VA loan under the post 9/11 GI Bill.
More than that in many areas. A former colleague’s husband graduated from pharmacy school three years ago; he started at $115K a year as a retail pharmacist in New Hampshire. And here in VA, I know a young man who just graduated and he’s making $110K as a pharmacist for a grocery chain. Asked him what he was going to do with his money. “Start paying off my student loans,” he replied.
I’m a big believer that student loan interest rates should be pegged to the demand for that degree. So, someone who’s an engineering, IT or accounting major would have an interest rate of zero, or around one percent. Meanwhile, someone majoring in gender or ethnic studies would have an interest rate equivalent to someone with a 500 credit score buying a used car—25% or higher. We have enough people with worthless degrees in the labor market; maybe the confiscatory interest rates would be enough to steer a few towards a viable degree and career.
On the other hand, many of these young SJWs don’t have enough brain power to major in anything but gender studies, sociology, or art history. And most of them figure if push comes to shove, they’ll get mom and dad to pay it off, while they’re living in their parents’ basement.
Where'd you get your data? Katie Couric?
You go to a 2-year junior college, spend about $20,000 to get an Associate's degree, then transfer to a 4-year for the last 2-years to get your Bachelor's degree at a good public college, spend maybe an additional $40,000 (no dormitories; you save money by staying home). Text books? Buy them used.
Women go to college not only to gain security in some degree, but also to find a suitable male to marry.
Ah! A spiritual engineer! ;-)
