Anyone Here Content With Just Having a High School Diploma?

4 years of frustration for a lifetime of happiness/security seems like a fair tradeoff to me. I know cats in jail that wish they could go to college.

True but then you'll see people not working half as hard as you getting way more just becuase their position in life or who they knew. Its not what you know its who you know.

Yeah i didnt have the focus and hated school while i was there...but working at this factory made me realize its importance.

Yeah buddy. Working at a warehouse/factory should wake anybody up. When I was there it seemed like the hours took so fukking long. It was like this scene from The Sopranos

The thing about College Degrees are, that the general ones are becoming a waste of money, time, and effort. Everything is getting more niche based and that means that your education must become more niche based for it to hold it's value. Gone are the days where a Business Degree means something (I have a Business Degree)

It's about networking. A regular College Degree doesn't mean shyt if you aren't networking. And if your network game is A-1, then you don't need the degree at all. I work in Banking and you would be surprised at some of these mothafukkas that don't even have a degree I be low key hating on that shyt. But I can't knock the hustle because that's the game.

I know a lot of people are not "natural" networkers. shyt, I used to claim that I wasn't one, but that shyt changed real quick when I saw that choosing not to network is NOT an option. Think that shyt is a game if you want to. As the saying goes, "Its all about who you know"

All I got is my diploma and at 24 I work at a power plant making 52,000 a year starting out. I'm content with that.

You'd be surprised how much you can text at work. You just gotta find a secret hiding place and your solid.

I'd say 0.7% of the population could make this proclamation. 0.5% If we talking legal money.

Not saying you didn't. I'm saying that if someone else followed your path they have a 99.5% chance of not making as much as you make. Statistically they have about the same chance at becoming a professional athlete as they do by following your path.
