Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!They ask. Know your shit, get an interview, and own it. If being able to have a thought, type, be in control of your success, and have a marketable product is for losers, then you are absolutely correct, I am a complete loser.:thumbsup: I'm sorry you haven't freed yourself from the delusion...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!No. Telling people they HAVE to pay for knowledge is not the right advice for anyone. Not presenting students with alternative routes in life before signing them up for a fat student loan is NOT the right advice for ANYONE. You think a bunch of fresh out of college kids don't talk about how...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!An associates degree is literally worthless. It's an extension of high school level courses for two years that leave the student with no more knowledge than they came to college with. I've never met a CS student who knew as much about programming as I did, who solely learned from their CS...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!Over the last four years, I've continually wishes someone had presented the alternative before I wasted a year of my life and $25,000. You can't give people a choice if you only present one option. Obviously there's a bunch of college grads here who are getting super offended... sorry you...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!I dunno about that. A lot of kids dropped out for the same reasons I did and I didn't know what I was going to do when I did. I trusted the Steve Jobs speech where he said follow your heart and the dots won't connect till years later. Society tells people they'll be worthless without going...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!Cause the ONLY way to learn anything is to pay someone to teach you it? That's not the right advice for anyone. Get out of the gutter that college = knowledge because that couldn't be further from the truth. The kids I'll be talking to chose to not go on their own. I'm not going to walk into...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!Haha let's just say it didn't go over too well with the councilor's, even though I did not present it as so "in your face." Councilor: "You're a useless college dropout who has no future. No, I will not let you give these kids a false sense of hope. You don't even know what you're talking...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!I just replied to a pm actually about that. I didn't read a single book in high school. Not one. It wasn't until after I got out of college that I started reading. I have a powerpoint I'm preparing for these kids and the first thing in the speech is asking them why they're not going to...- dknise

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!When I read TMF... I was putting my palm up to my face yelling "YES!" haha. If I ever wrote a book it would have come out exactly like TMF. The only difference... MJ's actually done it and reached success, I was just shooting blind at the target hoping I was on the right path. It really...- dknise

HOT!It's no secret.
