[quote=Anonymous]OP's kid should look at not in the next four years but the next forty years and it also depends on what he wants out of life. My DS got an IT job at the age of 18 that paid $45/hour with benefits and he wanted to quit UVA and work full time at that job. I asked DS if he would like to get paid $45/hr for the next twenty years or $150/hr in the next five years. He listened and finished his Computer Engineering degree at UVA and five years after graduation, he is making 350K/yr with amazing benefits. OP's kid should not be shortsighted and needs to look at the big picture of where he wants to be ten years from now.[/quote]
