When you have an arts degree, you have to find a way to talk your way into a company or get a different or higher degree (i.e. Masters) in order to get paid. I'm currently doing a Psych degree but I have an internship with a bank (I talked my way in with enthusiasm, intellect and research). I plan on going into law or finance.

Before brehs start thinking shyt is sweet by just getting a degree

http://www.thecoli.com/threads/usa-...ities-have-degrees-but-dont-get-hired.258115/

Hell perfect example. I'm working retail right now and one of the Assistant Managers I work with is an older breh in his late 30s with a BS in Finance and an MBA. He worked with stocks in New Jersey till the Market Crashed in 08 and then moved to Texas and worked in the Oil&Gas industry till the Oil industry also fell off. So shyt out of luck he moves with some relatives out here in Good Ol Boy :mjpls: Louisiana. Now less than 10% of the population here has any type of degree so we don't have any real industries for breh to even find any type of work and with 2 Business degrees they still won't even promote him past Assistant Manager. Meanwhile Our store manager didn't Even finish Highschool she just happens to know the right people :mjpls:

This. You'll be stuck doing something you hate just to pay off the 6 figure debt you incurred. :francis:
Click to expand...

Not if you fukked with ya local cc and transferred.

CC debt- 9k for 2 years
College debt(in state) - 25k for 2 years

34k :yeshrug:

And that's if you put everything on financial aid.

Most folks can shell out 2.5k for C.C a semester by working and a little help from their parents. You got 5 months to come up with 1500 and ya rents pay the last 1k...that's 300 a month. Very Possible

You really looking at 20k ish of debt tbh and if you major'd in something smart like STEM or Business you gonna see that ROI EASILY


Where nikkas fukk up is outta state and spend 4-5 years doing it cuz they wasted a year bullshytting due to the amount of freedom. Folks wanted to get away from their rents and live in a one bedroom apt half way across the country. C.C was the 13th and 14th grade to them and clowned it :yeshrug:



4 Years outta state- 140k
5 years outta state- 175k

:yeshrug:

Don't listen to Dave Ramsey's brehs
