Stay the fuck away from here. Any attempt to enter my home via the chimney will be treated as an illegal entry to my domicile and I will kill you in self defense. I know your dirty little bag of tricks. Bring those dumb reindeer and see what happens.
University was the single best investment I’ve ever made.
$12k/yr in state tuition at Georgia Tech
$48k total in tuition, another $40k or so for room and board
Graduated making $148k at 22.
No, I couldn’t have gotten the job without my degree. Yes, the skills I learned in university helped me on the job.
I know this is an anecdote and can’t be applied generally, but to act like university doesn’t make sense for anyone anymore is just foolish
You can get a great education, for relatively cheap, in a major that will pay a lot. You just have to do some research ahead of time.
When you’re on top of the world it won’t last for as long as you hope, when the world is on top of you it won’t last for as long as you fear.
Nothing is permanent. Good or bad.
