Lets say that student doesn’t work for McDonalds, but gets a job wher he learns to be a Plumberor electrician or a Diesel Mechanic. Works hard learns his trade opens his on business and becomes a millionaire and hires your son to be his accountant.
Thousands of self made millionaires never went to college, working for McDonalds isn’t the only job out there.I have a friend who is no brain trust, He started out pumping septic tanks, bought Jiffy-John toilets, cleaned them himself, He is now a Millionaire. Another friend went to college , taught school and is now retired and working as a carpenter to make neds meet and hasn’t two dimes to rub together.
College is only as good as what you get out of it. If you go there to play Foozball and get laid you may as well take that job at Mickey D’s.
I am getting long in the tooth and came from another generation, my parents could not afford to send me to college, and my grades weren’t that great anyway. Back in those days the thought of borrowing $20,000 the cost of college in 1960 , to go into debt right out of High School was unthinkable.
Today the thought of a parent being able to send their kid to college is ridiculous, unles you are a millionaire. College is entirely too expensive,because they have filled themselves with useless course’s, and Professors who couldn’t do a real job if they had one. Those who can —do, Those who can’t -—teach. That’s a little extreme , but it isn’t dead wrong either.

Well said Venturer. And dead on.
China will see to it that we have as many college educated debt prisoners as we can handle.
Now everybody go down to your favorite big box retailer for some more China made sh!t.
And don’t forget to stop at the bank to wire your kid some money for that kegger this weekend.
