I don't think they care when they are literally making millions on Wall Street or at a venture fund.

They aren't the type people to care about much except themselves. That's why when they die nobody cares too much at their funeral.

As opposed to office drones pushing paper as GS-14s?

Lol! Or the big law lawyers?

Well, big law lawyers truly add nothing of value to society.

Undergrad business degrees are a joke.

Do top schools even offer undergrad “business” degrees?

No, that's the point......with the exception of Wharton undergrad. You might as well get a trade school degree given that you'll be a philistine for the rest of your life.

All jokes aside...do you really not know of the career options open to undergrad business degree holders?

Here's a few:

Investment bank analyst on wall street
hedge fund analyst
consulting firm associate
venture fund analyst
government contracting firm associate

All of the above have healthy starting salaries for an 22 year old. How in the world are you not aware of this?

I think you must not know what a Philistine is (which seems to corroborate PP’s point about the narrowness of your college education).

This pp seems to think seeking wealth somehow makes you a philistine.. How narrow a point of view! Wonder if he they realize that it's money that helps revive and preserve art and helps people like him pontificate from an ivory tower. Wonders never cease..

No, this PP thinks that anyone who responds to a post saying “you’re a philistine” with “you must not understand that my degree leads to jobs with healthy starting salaries for a 22 year old” has done more to support than to refute the charge.

Well, my investment banker DH who makes several millions a year (before bonus) loves to BUY art and attend music concerts. Does that count, "Phillistine" poster?

On the opposite end of the spectrum, we make a fraction of what your DH makes and couldn't care less about art. Wouldn't even use Mona Lisa to wipe my ass with. Am I a Philistine? Maybe I am. I should change my name to Philistine K. Dick.

Is that wrong? If college was free, maybe we should look at it another way (whatever that may be). Since they are practially robbing your wallet to "educate" your kid, the only way to look at the value on that investment is the return.

Let's face, it I can learn most of the crap that a college can teach me for free on a MOOC or on the internet. The only reason I'd go to a college is for the pedigree and the resultant salary.

Nope. But it isn't the whole story.

I earn a nice living. I contribute to the country in a positive way every day. I have an advanced degree. I use my training every day. I can afford to support my child's education, but not absolutely anywhere without aid. I am very well read in the classics because of my undergrad training. This brings me joy even today. Life is pretty good.

I could earn more if I entered the private sector, but I don't want to and I don't need to for my life to be complete. I could earn less at a college training the next generation in my field, but I don't want to.

Please tell me what is wrong with my choices? There are many paths to a good life.

I'm sorry you didn't get in to your first choice.

I have a hard sciences undergrad and a business grad. I am very well read in much more than the classics - philosophy, psychology, politics, management theory, history.. - the list goes on. I can hold my own - EASILY- with anyone on any of those topics. And the best part is, I didn't waste money getting that knowledge.

I do all things you state in your first para. and can send my kids to any school they want to go to.

Please tell me what is wrong with my choices? You pick your path, I will mine.

I'm happy about my first choice and the choices it allows me to make (or buy).

Nothing is wrong. It is one of many paths. I'm glad you are a success, but sorry you are so arrogant and narrow minded. If you think that your path is the only worthwhile path, then you are mistaken, and must be fairly unbearable day to day as you encounter one person after another who you distain.

And if you are the OP, I urge you to get a life.

Not Penn in general. Wharton undergrad, maybe. I did what I did, learned what I needed to learn. My wife is very, very happy.

Yep, that accounting degree that enabled me to have a $1.1M salary was a joke....

Wharton doesn’t get exclusive rights for douchbaggery.
