[quote=Anonymous]Without a doubt a college degree is essential. I would also argue that it is important if you are planning on being part of the upper middle class. I would highly discourage my kids from marrying someone who didn't graduate from college and I think they would be unlikely to date someone who only graduated from HS. There are very very few professional jobs that don't require a college degree. In upper middle class circles everyone goes to college, except a very few outliers. You also learn skills like persistence, follow through, responsibility, and you grow up. It's a shame that college is so expensive and that people go into debt, but if you want to be a white collar professional and have the maximum doors open to you, there is no alternative.[/quote]
