"I'd rather have tuition than money because of tax advantages"
Right, government policy has created an incentive for you to desire an employer-linked scheme instead of higher wages. The employer gets a tax benefit, and you get a more limited and convoluted way of getting compensation.
- prepend 5y agoAll employee compensation is a tax benefit. What are you talking about? Wages are an employer tax benefit too. From a tax perspective, wages and tuition are pretty similar. I think the main benefit is that not many employees will take the benefit. And they can negotiate some big discount with an online university. So buying 10k degrees is cheaper than 10k paying on their own. In my case, I’d rather have tuition because I’d get more return than higher wages.
