[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a difference between not having access to information versus not looking for the information. If you go into college wanting to maximize your earnings then I'd imagine you'd find the information on finance/consulting. If you go into college wanting to "find your path" in something you are passionate about then it's unlikely you'll stumble across the difference in lifetime earnings between different career paths.

What seems to have happened to a lot of us is we didn't want to care about money in college and now we care about it more, because we're not that passionate about our careers anyway. I admit it. It is what it is and I have a lot to be grateful for nonetheless.[/quote]

People don't know what they don't know.[/quote]

But real thing that they didn't know is how much money they would [b]want[/b] to make in the future. If you don't care about money then you won't care that you can make 4-5x as much by going into a different career path. People don't take in information that they don't care about.[/quote]
