  but what about the college wage premium?

    When normalized for talent, the premium is quickly diminishing and is closed for many fields of study.

      I always took it to be a quality of life premium with better hours and work conditions but wages are quickly leveling off

  There are many doctors, lawyers, therapists, etc who are juggling mortgages or wanting to buy a house, and loan payments. Your point isn’t mute though

    There are probably a few doctors that get hit pretty hard by that. Most collage grads even with 100k incomes can’t buy a house because any place that pays new hires 100k likely has house prices starting in the 600-1m range
