    This Made Me So Mad

    HOT! 
    Like i said, it's not about the paper IMO, its about networking and meeting people that can really afford college and have resources available to them. I went to college myself and I just zombied on through the classes and got my BS degree. I didn't use the resources that my university provided...

    I would never go as far as calling Parents that want the best of their kids as "Pathetic". They only know what they know, they see people in their age demographic, which is more likely to have a better lifestyle if they went to college. So they just followed the simple law of association...

    This here is the major problem, here we have an 18-year-old kid with his eyes bright and excited about a school he just went and visited. Of course, he's not thinking about money, his life and education has been paid for up to this point. Now here's this professional advisor that works with...

    What are the chances student loans get wiped out?

    HOT! 
    Yeah, this goes back the mess how our education system is currently set up. The way we set up the classroom was because teachers and mentors were not as accessible and had to cram a number of kids in one room and teach them all something their parents couldn't. It was revolutionary at the time...

    Yeah, I taught chemistry a few years in High School, the personal finance class was a joke. They taught how to sign a check book and how to get credit cards but nothing about balancing investing, saving. So our education system is teaching them how to use the tools to consume, but not to survive.

    We all can laugh at this, but the truth is the educational machine is huge and their brainwashing methods are putting this country to its knees. We are told from a young age, if you go to college you will be successful. But they never talk about what to do after you graduate. We spend our time...

    Exactly the reason why I didn't quit my job to start something. I still work 9-5 for a manufacturing operation in Indianapolis while building a website development business. Make sure that you don't work with your clients while using company computers/time. I take lunch breaks and go outside of...

    Ok, You got the first part right. You gotta ask people and reach out for help, but you need to have a structured question that can point you in a direction. What it seems like you put on here is much more open-ended. When I remember I was in grade school, I loved the multiple choice or fill in...

    I second this, applying to places is like a job, so treat it like a job. Work 8 hours a day trying to find a job and get some income to keep afloat. If you can't wait to start your own thing, after you finish 8 hours of applying. Go ahead and start your own ventures, whatever it may be, web...

    I'm sure you are all caught up on my journey here on the forum. Honestly, I'm still new at the whole entrepreneur game, but I've experienced failed start-ups. I don't know if I can call myself a true entrepreneur yet because I'm not 100% self-reliant yet. However, what my analytical skills...

    Hey there fellow scientist, I currently am a chemist at a plant in Indianapolis and intend to be an fastlaner.
