LOL at anyone going to college in 2022

trades make more money
don't have to go through the corporate rat race
no cubicle life
higher ceiling, can start your own company
no competition to get in
zero debt
low stress
flexible hours
overtime pay
get to work with your hands
can buy a badass truck for your work
union representation
can move anywhere in the US and find a job

and lots of other things



I don't understand why anyone would even consider going to college nowadays

If you're just averaging the overall earnings of ALL college graduates (including all of the BS majors) vs all tradies...it's not far fetched at all.

Yeah, but do you have proof?

I’ve noticed that college grads make a lot more than non college grads on average

tradies like to say they make 200k/ year, but that actually their gross. they prob only net 80-90k in a good year if they own their own business. otherwise just lol, may as well work at jeffy lube

No. I debate fat liberals frequently and look up stats all the time and we are lagging behind in education, wealth generation, and opening small businesses. Those with degrees hold the narrative and becomes people with authority over your freedoms. The only way to counter that is to get degrees in stem and get educated.

2/3rds of all small businesses are now women and minority owned. If you're gonna be a tradie you had better eventually start your own trade business.

Wheres the evidence that they are making that kind of $$$ on average anyways?

I see nothing with those salaries on google. Almost everyone with nice homes seems to have a white collar job (doctor, accountant, lawyer etc.)

Sounds like a lot are making chit up.

Wrong, I’m close to 300k gross revenue (might be more with bonus, ded fkn srs) with a masters level education (executive MBA)

The degree was one of the hardest things I’ve done and one of the most valuable (skills + network/contacts). I strongly recommend miscers to go for a college degree.

That said, you also have to ideally not be a complete autist and hustle and be lucky here and there, any degree only gets you so far.

Also to be fair, my stress levels are pretty fkn high, at higher levels of revenu there’s more competition and there’s more to lose so it’s stressful by design

Yeah but you're forgetting the crippling addiction to nicotine, energy drinks, and scratch offs. Also this isn't the 50's, joining a union is cuckmaxxing in the modern era. See Railroad Strike of 2022

The executive MBA or UG? I thought executive meant it was a short version of like 6 months online or something. Maybe only certain places.

Prisoners can earn college degrees. To stand out the network where you can do business matters more than the subject or even ranking I'd say.

I work with trades. On all my jobs the carpenters and electricians made $50/hr, with zero overtime. I'm sure the same could be said for the plumbers.

I mean sure. There's lots of jobs out there. But I recommend 1-2 years of community college just to see what you want to do.
