[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry to be blunt but do you hang out with people much lower income than you?[/quote] OP here, fair question. My job is high income, but I often interact with lower income coworkers throughout the course of the day - spending hours with them at a time so I do meet many lower income folks. I do have friends and socialize with lower income and higher income groups, but there is not much overlap between the two.[/quote] My experience at one of these institutions was that the truly wealthy can often afford to major in subjects that don’t directly map into or lead to employment (art history, philosophy, “semiotics “) while us regular people majored in Econ cuz we needed a job. Not a lot of overlap between the art history and Econ majors.[/quote] Who told you that Econ was a path to gainful employment?[/quote]
