Just tell your kid to save a huge %age of his earnings. Sales is a feast or famine role and also unfortunately a pennywise pound foolish place where companies cut.

Salesforce also sees AI as replacing their sales people…I don’t quite get that but the CEO mentions it a ton. Not sure if the industry feels the same.

Cal Poly SLO, San Jose State U, and Santa Clara U.

All three are feeders to SV tech firms, not just for STEM degrees, also for other degrees. The last two are actually in Silicon Valley.
