Yeah these clowns don't get it, it's all about being able to find a way to make use of what you learned in your degree. Sure not all degrees are the same, some you have to go a little further before you can make real use of them, but to say they're useless :childplease:

Well I don't live in the US (I live in the Caribbean) so you might not know the uni I went to. I have my Bsc in Computer Science from the University of Hertfordshire in England. Then have a branch in my country (Trinidad) so I was able to get the degree locally (First class honors too :mynicca:smile:.

That's some good shyt right there:obama:

The U.S. government projects to make more money off student loans this fiscal year than ExxonMobil, Apple, J.P. Morgan Chase or Fannie Mae made on their respective businesses last year, a new analysis shows.

According to the Congressional Budget Office's latest projections, the federal government projects a record $50-billion profit on student loans this year.

ExxonMobil made $44.9 billion in 2012, according to published reports, making it the most profitable company in the country

Double major in journalism and psychology and parlayed it into a career in sports media:win: I work in all three facets of the media so take a guess if I'm making in the six figures or not:youngsabo: But degrees are supposedly meaningless:heh:

What school did you attend breh:dwillhuh:

My roommate was trying to talk down on degrees today. He basically said that because he knew people that had them that aren't doing anything with them that they were "worthless". He dropped out of college and has no degree. I'm the only person amongst my roommates that has a degree. They all work in bars and restaurants. I'm unemployed now but I've had real interviews with pretty impressive companies. Shyt, I have nothing against it or act like I'm better than someone cause I got a degree...but I went to college to get that paper son, and pretty soon I will so I'm not knocking the players or the game at all.

I just don't see how wanting to work in bars in restaurants up into the 30s is a viable option, but I see it alot out here in BK. F*ck that. I want a salary and benefits, and to get enough money to start my own ventures and stop begging people for a job. F*ck that.

There is nothing worse than a person who doesn't realize their full potential. Yall nikkas with your lil fancy degrees aint reaching your full potential....

Yall aint shyt but the nikka trynna be the token knee grow that breaks through the glass ceiling.


Scared to take risk.

Scared to be a boss.

Scared to supply a demand.

Yall would rather work for somebody you're smarter than then work for yourself,,,,,

You know what we call that?:mjpls:


House nikka Schtatus....



:leon: You got a degeee???? Good for you!!!!!!!

:heh: Did you take a loan????

You gotta job?????

:heh:What are you doing????

Is the money good???

:heh:Are you happy????

:heh:Do you see advancement in your field????:heh: or does your degree have anything to do with your field?


All that hard work, its gotta be disappointing reporting to someone else, instead of being a boss.



I have a degree and on the road to starting my own business. College gave me a worth ethic and an inner pride that will always make me feel superior to nikkas like you.

How dare you try to shyt on education.

What field is your degree?


That's irrelevant, he has a point. STEM majors advocate for more and pound their chests for owning them, but you really don't want an influx of STEM majors, especially if you enjoy that nice salary you earn. We do have entirely too many kids having to remediate math at the university level, but they also are terrible at English. Reform is needed across the board, but everyone can't be a STEM major. We do need more blacks - and minorities in general - in the STEM field, however.

That's the other part of the equation. Not only does a degree increase your chances of financial success,you get to work in a field you love to do. I don't even consider what I do for a living work. That's how fun it is. I basically get paid alot of money to have fun. My degree and internships did that. No disrespect to people working in restaurants but that's something I wouldn't want to do for the rest of my life.
