The Value of Education

The caption here reads:

The guy on the left has a bachelor’s  & law degree. He owes over $250,000 in student loans. He works for a law firm where he earns $130,000 annually. The guy on the right is a high school graduate. He has no college education. He works as an electric lineman. He owes zero in student loans, and he earns $160,000 annually.

Teach your kids about skilled trades and alternative options to make a good income and have low debt.

People who look down their noses at those without college degrees are repulsive.  We all understand that.

Yet those who believe that money is the most important thing in life, and that education has no value outside of income, are arguably even more pathetic.
