[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do so many parents and kids assume engineering is such a great career path financially? I understand if people choose it if they think it’s fun and rewarding, but if you’re choosing it mostly for the money, don’t most engineers make under $250? There are other ways to make more than that without having to grind through 8 years of high school and college if you’re reasonably smart.[/quote] OP's kid should figure out the costs of the life he'd like to have - mortgage, kids, travel, etc - and also the typical salaries in a few fields that interest him.
