[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What did he study? What kind of job does he want? [/quote]

Liberal arts undergraduate degree - not sure what he wants - he would take any job which pays him $30-45K. Since we, the parents, are STEM educated, we have no clue what he can do. [/quote]

Get this kid to the career center at his college. My DC with a liberal arts degree in a field that is routinely mocked on this board for being completely useless makes $65k in DC after 2 years.

You do seem completely clueless - hopefully your non-Stem educated kid doesn't have the same narrow world view that you have. Do you really never come across other  people in your company or life that do non-STEM jobs?[/quote]

I will suggest him to go to the career center and seek help. Yes I am clueless, but I have friends in non-STEM fields. However my friends are not as anti-wealth as my son is. If he can get a living salary with his degree, he would probably not go for higher studies ever.[/quote]
