In reply to Harley. Lots of variables that go into this for sure, but overall those with degrees tend to fare MUCH better over the years than those who don't. Whether financially or otherwise (and there's lots of "otherwises" here too that people tend to forget, like gaining an expanded network, growing more as a person (esp when attending and staying on a campus), and then of course the expansion of our brains :)). Of course, after college it's up to us to use/harness all of this stuff, but at the end of the day you're almost always positioned better with a degree than not.

“Don’t Go to College”.

I’m not so sure this one is a joke :)
At least in my line of work I sure didn’t need to go to college.
But I did and only just finished paying off my student loan 10 years after graduating.

In reply to Katie. Ouch! Oddly enough I lost an envelope with about $100 in cash in it in DC :(

In reply to Millennial Moola. Nice dude! All about fun (and cheap) travel... if all my friends lived there we'd be in good shape :)

I lost a wallet with $300+ in it in Washington D.C. on a school field trip in eighth grade. I’ve never forgotten it or the feelings it gave me.

Cheapest area ever doesn’t have to be that bad! In the Ukraine, I lived for $10 a day, had all the bootleg hollywood movies I wanted, free booze, cool people, we bribed the night guard for all these cool places like national cemetaries to see them at night for $2 for 20 of us. Plus taxi drivers there never charged me more than $3 for a ride anywhere. On top of all that, multi course meals were $3. I’ll never forget my 15 minutes in the 1%

No more cable (check), no more devil’s juice (check), invest in a coffee pot (check), learn how to cook (check). Never get divorced… Ooops. I had to do it. Gambling is a terrible disease to live with and tolerate. Now at 40, start investing, start saving, rebuild. Never never marry someone with materialistic ideals and spending addiction. Never.

In reply to Gundomoney. For sure - gotta live the life you desire whether it happens to involve saving money (or kids) or not. Though don't forget about all the joy those kids are bringing their parents which a trip or $$ could never buy ;)
