[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good. Kids need to learn that life has ups and downs and it's not all laid out for them like a platter of food.

Time to be humbled and take that wait staff job. [/quote]

Right??! It’s so rich (ha) to expect us to feel sorry that these kids training to be capitalist masters now face the downside of the free market. Like literally, zero sympathy. Particularly to the PE choads whose entire business model is to take over companies, strip the equity, and fire people. Nope, not even getting my tiny violin out for these baby vultures. [/quote]
+1 hate to say it, but this is what capitalism is about.  There are boom times and bust times. If you expected the party to last forever,  you were ignorant.

I have been laid off twice, been through two recessions, including graduating during a recession.  I told my kid to NOT go to such an expensive college such that we would have to take out huge loans. The ROI is just not there, and you never know what kind of economy you will be going into after graduation.

There had better not be another student loan forgiveness in the horizon for these graduates. [/quote]

There’s PSLF for nonprofit hospital admins [/quote]
please, most business grads don't major in it "to help people".  And most hospital admins only care about profit even as the hospitals are nonprofit.  Hospital admins don't actually care about the people it serves. They care about making sure the hospital is profitable.

btw, I was also a business major.  [/quote]

You missed the point.
“These people” will get student loans forgiven.[/quote]

WTF are you talking about? No, they will not get their loans forgiven, especially the foreign HBS students.

The only way to get forgiven is to go into government for 10 years and do PSLF. But that seems to be a pretty bad ROI on an MBA from HBS.[/quote]

A whole lot better than being unemployed.[/quote]
