Well it is true that not all people with degrees have a good job. A degree aint necessarily a ticket to success. It depends on what you do with it.! And it also depends on what degree you get! you cant expect to find success with just a degree in history lol.! But if you get a good degree then comes the internships, job traing, experience, ETC.!! You need to do more then just goto school lol.! You dont get out of college and automatically have a good job.!! Ppl dont see that...

The Case Against Education

Long video but I think everyone should listen to this.

yeah they do, but they're not necessarily working the check out register from shift start to shift end

you need some college to be considered for assistant floor manager in those type of places

so yeah, college can get you in the door to a healthy retirement in most job places

what it is is that some people with college years on their resume lack common sense
and it takes a while for reality to sink in
but a certificate on hand does get you farther in some circles
not all of course
in some places, its what you know how to do
while in others, is who you know
