What does it say about a first world developed country where young people willing and able to go to universities can not simply due to financial means, that should be shameful and distasteful to any sensible person, we can do better than that

Good for them

Some people are better off going to college, some are better off avoiding the debt and doing other shyt.

Trades/skilled labor make good money. Who wants to be 100k in debt starting out at a 45k salary working 10 hours a day . Thank goodness for the GI Bill otherwise I never would of been able to attend college or get a class A

 

[ORDER_66]

that's nice... we need more tradespeople...

And still wouldn’t date their blue collared counterparts

It’s insane, I could make just as much as a women with a masters in a competitive field, but some girl with a bachelors in English would curve me because I ain’t a scholar.

 

[Jblaze204]

I say this is a good thing but the trade programs should also offer/incorporate the general prereq courses (college algebra/pre calc, english lit 1 & 2, biology) and have these courses be transferable to all colleges.

wear and tear on the body is real so its good to at least have a semester or two of courses under your belt if you decide to change careers.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Women working.

I love it. A self-sufficient woman is way more attractive than a woman you have to take care of financially.

 

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

Good for them.

A few years ago, I said that more and more 20 year olds are going to pick up a trade and ditch college/university.

 

[Amo Husserl]

Now let's hope unions and occupational licensing don't keep black people out of making those six figures.

 

[Born2BKing]

Are these 6 figure jobs outliers are the norm is my question. I asl because I saw some guy talking about sheet metal workers will make 100k and after doing research every job I saw was paying like 30k - 50k.

 

[ItsPeople]

I don’t want to no hoes that don’t work in a climate controlled environment.
