[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really see a problem.

If you told me, males who want to go to college are not getting in, I would have a problem.

I think it's stupid to think that college is the only way to go. We need to normalize jobs that don't require college degrees.

My niece makes $70K/year climbing towers, photographing them and sending the photos to engineers to determine if they need to be fixed. She is getting ready to hire 2 people and increase the number of towers she can manage a week. Qualifications: climbing and able to use a phone.

My nephew is working at a dispensary, is now in charge of the warehouse and "supply chain". They have sent him to supply chain management classes, he does not need calculus to do this job.

Colleges are often a bunch of bull$hit[/quote]

Your nephew absolutely has a ceiling with how far he can go in logistics and supply chain management without a degree. There are lots of jobs where you can make an ok living, but most have a cap and that cap is usually below what people imagine their child will earn [/quote]
