Masters is the new Bachelors.
exactly my point.
My oldest got his technical “diploma” in personal fitness and is now a personal trainer. He has the “it” factor (great personality, great body, great looking all around guy) and does really well for himself in this field. He will go far. Total cost (he paid) under 300 bucks.
Middle son is planning to enter seminary in the fall.If accepted, will be fully paid for by our diocese for 9 years of schooling and I believe, 2 bachelors degrees (one in theology, one in a different art). It is required to be a priest.
Youngest finishing up homeschooling this year, plans to take online computer courses so he can write software ( I think thats what he wants to do, but his explanations cause my eyes to glaze over, so I may not have it exactly rightLOL) but we will not send him to “college” to get a technical degree, he can get that either online or at a tech school.
Hubby went in the military to get his education in HVAC/R several decades ago, and it has served our family well. No college loans to pay back, and he kept me home while raising our boys. He worked his butt off and we didn’t see much of him for alot of years, but those were the choices we made. College is a waste for most people, I hate to say it, but its true. If you are entering a field like doctor, lawyer, engineer, or a fiduciary position, like accounting, financial planning,then yes, you need a degree from university. If not, go to votech schools, apprentice, or work your way up from the mailroom/receptionist spot. Be valuable and you will move up.
