    The longer you go to school, the more $$ you make, the less you have to work.

    Yes, if you "know" someone, you can ride their shirttails to success. However, you'll always be the guy who needed the help to make it. Didn't have what it takes to do it yourself. I've made several friends wealthy, but when we get together they always thank me for helping them.

    Not always true, unless you are in the medical field or something. I dont have a degree and do pretty well. I worked my way from the bottom to the top in my field in less than 7 yrs and make more than double some of the people that graduated college when i was suppose to. And still make 50k a year more than my friend who is a 8yr electrical engineer. So you dont have a degree to work less puls i only work 6 months a year. But Taylor i wish you the best homie and have a little fun with the co-eds

    Statistically people with a bachelor's degree make around $25,000 a year more than someone with just a high school diploma. The number rises even higher with a master's or PHD.

    This is possibly the most out of turn BS post I've ever read here. My sister has a Masters degree and makes nothing now that she has kids. She did use her degree to work in more than one mental hospital. My dad has one too..he got his after he retired from IBM. His is related to his charitable non-profit organization so you could say he doesn't use his for big profit either. My mom went back to school after all those years of taking care of my sister then me to get her BA only to get paid almost nothing to help severely disabled kids in the poorly run and ineffective Texas public school system only to give up later because of her health.

    Taylor, have fun and do what's right for you but never listen to people on the internet (including me) that tell you what to do.

    Dang, thanks Debbie Downer.

    I disagree. Your sister voluntarily became a stay-at-home mom. Should not be used to validate how well or not well a degree is utilized. Your dad received it later in life after retiring. Should not be used to validate how well or not well a degree is utilized. Your mom got a degree and is an employee of the State of Texas school system. I agree that teachers should be paid better, but they do receive decent benefits and retirement. A person w/o a degree cannot become a teacher in the State of Texas. In this instance, having a degree made her able to do what she wanted to do with her life.

    Not trying to be a jerk, but 2 of your references aren't valid and the other showed that it pays off to get a degree.

    So what was the purpose of this post?
