Hah, it is the same here in the USA. The people who studied the easy stuff don't have jobs, and if they do they are low-paid and don't offer much security. The sciences don't even pay that well, although they can if you try hard and schmo

Because facebook is a waste of time, and if you put that $100/mo for 45 years in an IRA with an index fund you will have enough money for at least some heath insurance in old age/senility (may you live to 120). This is coming from someon

Did you even read my comment? It has everything to do with Islam and Islamic culture, which are two different things, both of which have different presences around the world. For the record, I don't like Islamic culture. I don't judge indi
