RE: Bury Me In A $70,000 Hole

in #life7 years ago

This is a great article. I feel everything that you are saying. I have a Masters Degree and to Bachelors and if someone told me getting a $150 Boxing certification would have given me the life that is has there is no way I would have considered college. I currently own two gyms and have about $1,000 invested into my fitness education whereas I'm $65,000 in the hole with my Masters Degree. I should have totally avoided the whole Masters Degree. I haven't used it yet and suspect since I'm self employed I won't. I come to understand that they're other ways to make a great career without going into massive student loan debt. You feel like college has become more of a business this an education system. The cost to get a degree is constantly rising. When will it stop? Again great article.

Good for you brother. Glad to see you made business moves. But like you said that didn't require a 65k Masters. Man as you know college is nothing more than BIG business. Watch the Ivory Tower documentary if you can find it. It basically explains the rising debt and the business of it all.

Thanks bro for stopping by.
