(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Here me out. I know you saw the title and probably thought, "What the actual fuck kind of question is that?"

Now, what I mean by that is simply this. My father for instants, did not go to college. He makes about $101,000 working from home for some company. Now I know that isn't top notch rich but it's decent. Now, someone who goes to college, obtains a bachelors, gets a job. Roughly 80% of them are going to make less then $100,000. Also, think about this. you are an A+ Average student in school. You go to college. Chances are, you're gonna apply for a good job and your boss is going to be that C average student in your school who is now making bank roll and didn't go to college.

So what are yall's opinions on this? I expect you guys to tell me how it is so I promise I wont get butt hurt if you roast me Smile



PS: Yes, I plan on going to college Gobble

I agree with that. I mean if you wanna be a doctor or lawyer you'll need it.

But the later on is a straight fact and I think should be a option. Graduate from HS. Enter the work force to gain some experience. Then go to college and advance in your career if the college is needed.

If you wanna make the big bucks makes you sure get one of the following degrees:

Gender Studies
Any Art degree

It's debatable. Either way, if you were to get high scores on the SAT/GPA (depending on your region.) You could get free colleges and scholarships. If they would pay for some of your Uni/Col, then, in my opinion, it's a valid point you should, and grind for the main major that will get you money. If you're a retard like myself that didn't care about school, did wrong choices in the early of high school (started caring late Junior year.) then, it would be hard to pay for college, and even put you in debt in the future.

It's your future, you choose to make the decision to be the person to brag about your degrees, or brag that you were successful without it like Bill Gates.

Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg both did some great things without a degree. Mark actually has a video of him saying a degree is useless. But yeah, I agree with other things you said as well. I guess it's just what's best for your future

You do realize that they both got into a very prestigious school (Harvard), a school that mostly all of us couldn't even get in to, so it's not like Bill and Mark were just some random bums. They were already crazy smart to get into Harvard.

Honestly, as others have said, it really does depend on who you know. So many classes that I took throughout college felt absolutely pointless, and they were. If you have an idea of what you want to do, and are confident that you can make it happen, I'd say go for it. For some people that requires school, for others it doesn't. It's all relative really.
