I have an AS , BS and a MS. I thought it would help me get promoted at work. After all I was just an enlisted swine...... Most officers I know don't have masters degrees.......nope I got 3 pieces of paper and 100k dollars in debt!!!

I never had the chance to go to college. However I seem to be doing OK. Knowing me I would have done something else besides whatever I would have gone to school for anyways. The real frustrating thing is that without a degree many people won't give you the time of day and just assume your an idiot. This simply is a mistake on their part...my wife however is taking classes online though.

I agree, it's a big mistake! Here in Ca people with a master's are flipping burgers..
What they need are more trade schools..

College is something that you want to experience, and many make careers out of it because it is a safe environment. I have a BS and MS, and did them by working and paying out of pocket.....no debt. After 6 years teaching and researching at the University, it was made obvious the "Piled Higher and Deeper", was being heavily suggested for my continuence.....I elected the real world and the chance to do what I wanted, and never turned back. I miss the research and the chance to formulate a problem and come up with a solution....sounds like everyday life doesn't it. Now as I start my retirement, and have the time, I also have some research projects I want to pursue here on the Lake....Questions that I have seen other's work on and publish, but with ambiguous results....primarily the whole question of climate change and it's effect on the environment....Like why is there still 2+ feet of ice on the Lake in front of my house.

We all use or abuse education for our own means, but hopefully none of the knowledge has ben wasted and the wisdom that comes with time and maturity is used wisely......now of my stump, and wishing all a good evening.....Gary

Folks,

Insofar as advanced education is concerned it has its place.....I was pretty much self taught by the school of hard knocks and a lot of high end condensed courses throughout my working career.

The hard part is applying it in real life.....it's a starting point not the end of the road....kind of like learning to ride a bike with training wheels....eventually you have to take them off.....that's when the real learning starts.

Regards + HH

Bill

Folks,

On a lighter note.....I've played this one before but it's probably the best cover out there.
