[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bottom line: there's a hierarchy in this world. If I went ivy, I got a better education than you. My luxury car is better than your Ford. My exotic vacation is better than your day at a nearby beach. My million dollar bank account is better than your overdrawn one.

It is what it is .[/quote]

Sure. But the point is that you don't have to go to an ivy league school to get a job where you will eventually make millions of dollars. Isn't that what everyone is saying in this thread?[/quote]

True! Just like I don't have to buy a Benz to get from Point A to B, but I CAN! So I DO! And those who CAN'T will continue to make posts about how my Benz and their Hyundai both take us from Point A to B. It's not that black and white. There are so many more benefits to having the Benz (ivy degree) over the Hyundai (non-ivy degree). And the fact that I can have the Benz while you drive the Hyundai also says a lot about who we are and our live experiences, expectations, preparation, etc.

Ivy vs. non-ivy is much more nuanced than most want to admit. Actually, I think they realize how nuanced it is. That's why they beat that dead horse every chance they get. Just accept some can go to the Benz dealership to get a car and others will have to go to the Hyundai lot.[/quote]

Short version: Ivy envy puts you at risk of posting tons of embarrassing BS on DCUM involving lots of CAPITAL LETTERS and BS claims that you hire other executives. Not to mention, excessive use of exclamation points!!!!!!!!![/quote]
