You are still way better off with college than without. It’s not as good a deal as it used to be but it’s still the best deal available.

- kevinskii 6y agoI'm not so sure. I would probably choose a vocational apprenticeship over a B.A. in Sociology from State U.
- magicsmoke 6y agoA B.A. in Sociology isn't a good comparison to vocational apprenticeships. A better one would be a B.E in some kind of engineering.
- kevinskii 6y agoI agree with you, but that wasn't the claim that I was replying to.
- Ididntdothis 6y agoHow many people with a vocational degree make >100k? Not many. The path to higher income is paved with credentials if they make sense or not.
- vzidex 6y agoI think it depends on what you're doing. If you want to be an artist or a writer, maybe community college would be a better deal. On the other hand, if you want to be an engineer then it's pretty important to go to a reputable institution - at least in the field I work in.
