So I was watching a local Boston tv show about people with local businesses. One story that caught my attention was one about a woman who had a bake shop that she enjoyed. She mentioned that she had a degree in psychology but then quit to start the bakery. She wasted years and many thousands of dollars because no doubt her parents impressed on her the need to get a college degree. I wonder how many people have had a similar experience? College can be a ripoff if you are not sure what you really want to do.
I have no problem with someone getting a degree and not using it, but 3 or 4? To be fair, it's almost always worth it to go to college if you can make it happen, and multiple degrees can make sense, but I know a lot of young folks who want to get another degree before they've even used the one they have.
