Not always true ... Roonas Send a noteboard - 29/04/2012 03:04:51 PM
If one chooses wisely and is smart with the application of their resources.

The people who took out $200,000.00 loans for 4+ years of "How to be a bum" career path are the obvious rule, but there are exceptions where some people go to school with a purpose and plan and come away from school with some debt, but not unmanagable circumstances.

It is becoming more the case that kids go to school for a B.S. Degree and come away with more of a "BS" degree ... but I still believe if kids chose their paths more carefully, with greater attention to marketability of their educational and vocational skill set post-graduation rather than going to school for a worthless degree and then wondering why they can't find a job.

Just my two cents, but I truly do think it's a wise investment if you do it wisely.
