What kind of useless degrees that don't come with grant money and more pay than a trade attached are you getting?

i used to fuck a baby boomer
she'd come over sometimes while her boyfriend was away after school.

once the door would close she'd almost instantly get naked. most times she'd put on her favorite song and start sucking. then she would cry. her tears and makeup would drip down her face onto my dick. its surprising how cold tears are. eventually i finally asked her what was wrong. in between licks she told me that her favorite song was also her bfs favorite song. so even though she loved hearing it and it totally got her pussy wet, it also made her think about the fact that she was cheating on her boyfriend. i dont think i ever came harder down somebodies throat then right after she told me that. she was beautiful. we dont hang out anymore. wanna get lunch?

this was the song:

Its ok to get it if you really want to but it cost around 100k. You can go to a community college and its under 20k and come out making really good. Many trades you can start at 50k a year without OT depending on where you live topping out over 100k.
Sorry everyone told you some bullshit and to get your 4 year degree and life would be great shit happens. Maybe you should go get a job as a tech and suck up you pride.
I went the CC way and no worries in life. I also owe no student loans. Been offered engineering jobs cause i know my shit. But I love my job and its not me. You make of this life what you want. So get up out of moms house and go for it.

Well what else are you doing right now? When i graduated last year, i was pumping out 20 resumes a week, and working 50 hours in fast food. Found a job in three months
>>672252453
Up to 10 years ago yeah, maybe, but unless you're applying at the shit shoveling plant, a tiny company or some hard labor job this shit doesn't work anymore.
>>672251000
>>672251000
im with ya on that bro. im very thankful my parents are so lenient. i went to CC for 2 years while working shitty retail jobs. i kept switching my majors until i realized that the CC i was going to was a joke and i wasnt learning shit.. i know you learn more on the job.. but these "do this 10 question worksheet, then sit on your ass for the remaining 2 hours of class" were bullshit. i really fucking loved what i was majoring in and then halfway thru finishing it, the classes ruined it for me.
anyways i dropped out obviously.. got a full time gig as a courier making more money than i ever have. i literally do 3 hours of fucking work a day and get paid a full day. my boss is retiring soon and is handing me the company since im the only one thats still working for him.
i know i ranted a lot there.. but i feel for a lot of people my age cause their parents are baby boomers and give them shit. my parents never thought the same way as baby boomers did and they understand my situation because when they were my age they knew damn well how hard it was..
college wasnt for me.. i regret dropping out, but at the same time i am doing so much better mentally and ill figure something out.. i got connections where im at now.. its who you know not what you know after all.. i never wanted to believe it but shit that saying has been so true.

People didn't force you to pay the debt either. 2 years out not paying a 50k loan from a private lender. 4 more years and it hits the statute of limitations. They still can't bring me to court because I moved states lol.
And 5 years it's off my credit. Too bad I make 60k right now and could feasibly pay my debt.
But I don't have to
>>672253428
That seems like a big gamble
>>672253166
lol, just wait until someone with a college degree, more qualified, gets the job that you don't.
unless you're sucking the owner off, I don't believe that you are going to be handed a company.

>>672251022
It's not about not being able to pay it's about being saddled with exorbitant debt with insane interest or picking a shit career.
I went to a state school with a 12k per year scholarship and still owe 30k. I put twice what I need to towards it monthly and that's an entire weeks pay after taxes.
A quarter of my take home goes towards it and I still won't be paid up for around 8 freaking years. I'm on the good end too making +50k pet year starting and working in my field.
I also worked all through college but that money went into my bank then straight to bursors. My dad worked less hours in his day and went to the same Fucking school. He had no loans. Paid it all from his minimum wage job.
>>672253910
Gee willickers dad, will I ever be rich?
Yes son, after I'm dead and gone, and all you had to do was get old.
Can I blame my kids and their kids for being lazy?
Yes you can little Timmy, now go play while I beat your mother for burning my steak.
>>672252306
this is literally what my dad says all the time. i love the man but god damn. every time i got a job he would tell me to get this other job instead and im like "i just got a decent job here, let me try to move up in it or stick around for a bit". I recently got a job as a courier at the airport and hes telling me to work for UPS and to talk to this guy or that guy. the conversation basically ended up like this:
>"hey anon talk to this guy at UPS.. he can get you a job as a driver"
>i dont want to work for UPS. thanks though
>"why not? good pay, benefits, etc"
>i dont enjoy that type of work, besides i would have to move up into the company by loading trucks, breaking my already fucked up spine for minimum wage for 2 years before being a driver.. even though i have a year of experience as a courier"
>"well anon applying doesnt hurt"
>yeah dad but from what i hear its not all that great.. its like retail where they dont care about their employees.. remember what happened when i was at food lion dad? remember how badly they treated me for 2 years?
>"you never know til you go in and see it yourself"
>hey dad, has your dad (my grandpa) ever told you that you should work here, but you didnt want to and you were fine where you were at?
>"why yes son he has"
>well what did you tell him?

>>672251979
ya, the idea that people that make more money work harder or are smarter is consistently reinforced by people who have better jobs than your own. everyone works harder and is smarter than the guy they work above because they don't want them taking their job. i get it, but I don't know why people still pretend when they're on an anonymous image board. I know huge fuck ups and idiots that make more money than other people I know who are definitely harder working and/or smarter. That's the way the world is. It's just the way it is and that's fine, but why do some have to lie to themselves about it? There's something to be said about not being able to face the truth.

and oh yess my dad spanked me when i fucked up. he washed my mouth out with soap.. and when i was too old for that he would pop me in the mouth. its funny now cause im in my 20s and drink beer with my dad on a daily basis and even smoked weed with him several times.. its funny to see how different a parent can be when you are young and then older.

>implying useless degrees are a modern invention
i hope you realize no one actually gets a womens studies degree. that's a meme to make fun of tumblr. or maybe you've been on 4chan so long you actually believe memes are real. i know people with economics, biology, chemistry, and other STEM degrees who have difficulty finding jobs in their career fields. the meme hasn't caught up to the fact that most STEM degrees are not really worth anything now either.
just look at engineering, there's A LOT of fields of engineering that aren't worth going into. computer science will be that way eventually (especially with programming skills becoming more common and/or outsourced). a few years from now EVERYONE will be fucked, and it's a JOKE that people think trades can save the day.
Please, no one wants to do trade work because it's a shit job that ruins your body, you work in shitty conditions and/or the middle of nowhere, and it's just as vulnerable to a flood of people entering the field IF IT WAS that good. just like "going to the oil fields" was a "SECRET" there for a while, oh wait, except that job ended up being completely fucking volatile and exploded in on itself in a hurry.

i have taken his advice before.. to be very honest here.. the reason i dont take his advice often is because i want to feel alive...
when my dad was my age he was in new york making money in a band (wont name the band because some of you may know it). he was playing music, hanging out with friends, getting pussy all the time. then he moved to the state i was born in and continued his thing.. basically long story short he lived.. sure he fucked up now and then but he lived.. he had that rushing experience..
now compared to me.. a loser who doesnt have any friends, never had a gf, has dont nothing but work/school all his life.. i want to stop this.. i want to have that time like my dad did..
i know this is a dumb reason. i have taken his advice before a lot.. but id like to make my own decisions and create my own path.. and yes i will fuck up but to me that is the rushing feeling that my dad had and it is also what i want

i'm gonna tell you this now and you might not listen to me, but look i'm not like everyone else here. i support a good education and i think it brings value both practically and to society, but DO NOT GO TO FILM SCHOOL. nothing will come of that. even a degree in sociology or psychology would be more beneficial to filmmaking. DO NOT GO TO FILM SCHOOL. if you want to go to college go to a state university. spend the 20-30K like everyone else, and you will live fine. APPLICATION FEES TO STATE SCHOOLS ARE LOW. DO NOT GO TO FILM SCHOOL. GO APPLY TO A STATE SCHOOL FOR SOMETHING ELSE - ANYTHING.
i hope you listen to me

Why are you assuming I am talking about gender studies when I talk about useless shit degrees? Instead of wasting your time and ruining your life in college go learn a trade. You will easily find a job and you'll be making money in no time. When you save up enough money you can start your own business. Do whatever you want. Create a taxi company and earn 1000 dollars a week or something.

>>672256761
In your mom's defense, that's honestly what a lot of spoiled assholes do. Not implying you are one, but even people like me, also 18, can painfully see how god-damn lazy my generation is.
I'm a freshman in college, I honestly have never had a job due to medical issues, which is why I'm going to school so that I can have a good career that won't strain my body.
But I fucking hate assholes in my classes, and I hear them complain that college was their parents idea, that they would rather be home in texas just chilling, rather than get an education. That their parents pay for everything, they have a credit card with their parents, they buy coffees, get wasted every weekend, and complain about getting shit grades.
I hate my generation, really not trying to sound like an edgelord, but god damn, millennials as a whole can't do shit, whine about having to do shit, and then proceed to fuck shit up .
I understand hating boomers because they were awful, but dear lord, millennials suck ass too

>If you go into math and you can't find a job while going homeless because of all the debt it's your fault.
you're retarded. you think majoring in something that 4chan thinks is "difficult" means you get a job as if our society is some sort of real meritocracy. i know people who know their physics, chemistry, biology, etc. who cannot find jobs. i know people with engineering degrees who are underemployed.
i don't know if you're an old man who is completely out of touch with entry-level hiring or if you're some kid in a STEM program somewhere thinking he's living the life "because he chose the right major" but you don't have any perspective at all
ALSO LOL you fucking are on the TRADES meme! you clearly didn't read anything about trades. TRADES TRADES TRADES. trades are a meme. go be a fucking plumber for 20 years and come back and tell me how great it is.
I'm in my mid 30s. I have serious issue with people 50+. They all are pissed because college kids who to interning are getting paid now. I do not get why they are angry. The kids are working, slavery is abolished.. so who gives a fuck? I hear alot of "kids today are lazy" they aren't lazy, technology does most jobs for them. My kids backpack for 8th grade weighs as much as he does sometimes. I'm just glad I'm letting him be a kid and he isn't signed up for every extracurricular activity under the sun like I see most kids. Kids today are fucking exausted from stress of living up to the expectations of the adult world. No wonder we are seeing record nimbers of cases of younger and younger people having strokes and heart attacks. I say ship the geezers onto an iceburg like they did in the movie North.no r3ason you guys should pay 3500 a month to keep them around (that's the cost of a shared room in a nursing home).
>>672257343
>You've been told all your life to not go to college
No, I actually had to fight my family over this. They only gave up when I told them that if they wanted me to go to college, they had to pay for it. If I had been any of the numerous people that I know that don't have the conviction to stand up to their family, I would be neck-deep in debt and on the hook for it.
Just because the old fogies you know didn't pressure you doesn't mean your experience is universal.

basically get a job somewhere where you think you have an opportunity to move up in.. i wont say "get a job you'll enjoy" because that is impossibly dumb right out of high school. just work at it with school though if you are serious about it. im 22 still living with parents, it sucks.. not really cause my parents are chill as fuck but you get the picture. im about to move out with my friend whos dad is a friend of my dad and has been friends since they were my age.. so basically my dad and his friend were roommates at my age.. and now their sons are moving out together lol.

43. New rules forgive any money you still owe after 20 years of continuous payments, no matter how small. That includes payments of $0, which is what I pay, since that's 15% of my disposable income. Yeah, I'm fucked if I ever jump to a much higher paying job, but as it stands, I'll probably end up seriously limiting what I end up paying.

The average student loan in this country is $29,000
I have $32,500 in loans that I will have to start paying when I graduate this may. I was able to fairly easily find a job that will afford me the ability to pay off my loan comfortably in under 5 years.
The secret? I didn't get a useless degree! You should have known going into it that your liberal arts degree wasn't going to be a good investment.
I'm sick of all these millennials pointing fingers rather than finding solutions to their problems.

mathfag here.
Thing about math is that unless you stay in academia then you aren't likely to end up with a job "in" math. That isn't to say that you will end up homeless and unemployed, just that most math graduates end up working careers in other fields.
The stats, finance, and data science people probably find it the easiest to find jobs. Though they mainly end up studying statistics and stochastic stuff instead of proper math (inb4 brainlet cries out about stochastic calculus being really real math)
Actuary science isn't math, those guys are retards basically just a minor step above business majors.
You shouldn't plan for academia.

Or you know, you could just learn to weld and make a decent living as well.
Heres a protip: Learn layout, learn fitting, learn to read blueprints (which isnt hard at all), and practice practice practice. If you're so inclined learn a little metallurgy as well, it will put you years ahead of most guys just hired to throw down beads on an assembly line
Even if you suck you can start out at 12 bucks/hour welding bullshit hidden parts and from there you can only grow. Easiest to learn is MIG, next is stick (SMAW) and then TIG and other exotic forms of welding. However that is not the "easiest to master" list. You never master welding you just learn to get better. You will get good with MIG, even dual shield, but it will take you a lot longer to throw down good welds with stick, and even more with TIG. But MIG will get you working almost anywhere.
The majority of guys out there are just monkeys throwing down dimes and inches to pay the bills. If you get into the real science of it and work to make the best welds you can you can make really good money.
>>672257633
Spoiled lazy rich kids didn't suddenly spawn out of this generation, they've existed for quite some time. There are plenty of hard working millenials who wouldn't take an opportunity, like your parents paying for your college, for granted. Unfortunately that's not possible for most people.

Enjoy the fruits of liberalism, you lazy wastes of life. By the time baby boomers and us gen xers die, you will be deeper in the failure of your liberal retardation and we will have no fucks to give. You have to live with the world you made.

In my case, my parents aren't actually paying for my education, just my first semester, everything else I'll be paying in loans. However, I do acknowledge I am much better off than others, and I definitely don't want to have that go to waste.
My goal is to give my kids, whenever and if I ever have any, as good a start as I was given, if not better. I just hope I don't spoil him/her and let them think what I give is for granted.
And I agree, there are plenty hardworking millennials, quite a few being friends I actually met this year, but the sea of millennials who don't care just make me sad.

Only a small portion do just math, most of those go onto graduate degree programs either in math or something else.

it is however my primary arguement, giving college's money is just funding the brainwashing of america.

Maybe you werent a retard you would have gotten a scholarship and wouldnt have taken out loans. Shit you can get a scholarship if you have a 3.0 GPA in highschool, thats a B average. If you cant even get that, you deserve your shitty wage and crippling debt

Dumbass, i've never heard a single person complain about their university debt in australia, since you only start paying back the loan once youre earning over 50k. you wouldnt know that though since you have fucking mushrooms growing out of your neckbeard.

If you don't have one it's because you're not worth what you're looking for.

i dont get how people just want to get rid of college. the point of going to lectures is not the same as binge watching youtube videos on a topic. it's to be in an environment of peers that are learning the same thing to have a discussion, and furthermore, it's having someone who is an authority on the subject mediate the discussion and lead the topics. even further it's to give access to materials and infrastructure to do whatever it is you're doing (e.g. 3d printers, computer labs, biology specimens, chemical instruments, etc.)
HOW can you boil down a college education to a fucking youtube video? don't get me wrong I LOVE khan academy and code academy and all that shit and it's great, but it's not REMOTELY the same thing. the only person that would say that has never been to college

I can tell you that the issue isn't purely degrees and the number of people being pumped out of universities but also an issue with the job market. The job market is an absolute mess in the US, it still hasn't recovered from the GFC (you can thank the boomers for the GFC btw) and there is anther major recession on the horizon. On a side note, if you do well in your studies and you get the option to do a PhD (like one of your professors offers to sponsor you and genuinely wants you to do it rather than just doing one because you can) I would seriously recommend it. I teach while studying and the pay might not be amazing but its much better than what most of the other graduates from my year are earning.

IT'S A SCAM. they're nice people. i'm sure everyone has good things to say about them. DO NOT FALL FOR IT.
go to a state school. every state has a good state school. take out ~30K in loans MAX. don't do it for film. do it in literature, sociology, psychology, ANYTHING but an art degree. a lot of non-art fields can teach you TONS about art. art school is a scam. you can do film in your own time.
you will regret this four years from now. I swear to you. the people that you're talking to that are you telling you this is okay are lying to you. i hope you REALLY understand this. you could apply to a state school right now. you could literally spend an extra 70K on film equipment, major as something else, and get more out of it.

You know that dreams aren't real right?
Ah, youth. So cute. Don't worry. Life will kick your ass but she'll teach you good lessons while she brutalizes you.

It proves you're an illiterate millennial potato thinking you are entitled to everything.
Well played, retarded child.
Most of the Boomers will be senile within a decade, so we can put them in rest homes and pump them full of presciption drugs while we fix the political mess they left us.
The boomers left most of their latch key kids to fend for themselves and the ones that won tried hard to care for the millenials.
Millenials need to learn how to vote, and how to hack those who will try to steal the vote.

I understand the blatant hypocrisy, because that's what it is.
What I was referring to was work ethic and productivity inside school, I took the toughest regiment of schooling I could get, but so many students go off the base public school regiment, complain and bitch about having to do literally anything. It's no wonder why public school teachers quit or hate themselves so often, because if you teach a basic class, you hate it.

I'd rather die trying to find or make a better career than die miserable in the life you described.

Who'll be paying for that? Mexicans after they finish building the wall or something? Nah. Euthanasia for people who can't pay their own way.

Because these monstrously ignorant apes destroyed the economy and environment beyond repair but ignore all that, millenials are just lazy and entitled

Hearty anon is hearty! 99.9% chance you'll fail. Try buying lotto tickets, you might win there if the whole career thing doesn't.

So you got a liberal arts degree that cost $100,000 and he can't find a job. Exactly how is that my fault?

The only college degrees really worth anything are math heavy ones.
