What is the point of college?

submitted by Shekel_Me_Timbers to whatever 4.2 yearsApr 19, 2021 15:56:44 ago (+13/-0)     (whatever)

I'm graduating in a few weeks, and I'm beginning to wonder what the fuck was the point of all this. I spent 5 years of my life doing nothing, learning nothing more than what I can find from 15 minutes of research, to qualify for jobs that don't pay as well as a trade. I wasted all this time when I could have a six figure job, a house, and a wife and kids at this point instead of initially joining the workforce at 23. College is fucking retarded.

Did you get sex? Thats somewhat positive.

I agree with you but it also does open more doors to you then before just because you got a piece of paper.

5 years? Should have been 4...

What makes you think you would have a 6 figure job? At $40 an hr as a solar specialist I'm still shy of that mark with a University degree and electrical and plumbing experience. What do you bring to the table that would make a 23 year old 100+k a year?
