With all that said, college has made a significant improvement in my life but not due to education. I made a lot of friends and had a lot of experiences that made life feel worth living.

It just sucks after being in college and ive had professors telling me jobs will be lined up for me with my experience in social media only to find out that even though I'm experienced, jobs still dont want me.
picked the wrong major. picked the wrong everything, I guess.
woops

I wish I could tell that to the 2004 version of me

should I do the 1 10 cent viral that we are probably allowed to do?

You are capped at like 3 lol
go ahead though.

You are missing out on the part where they use student loans/debt to prey on the lower class who can't afford to pay out of pocket for college. There are TONS of people who have no college debt because they are upper middle class or higher.

I'm so lucky that my dad joined the military and got disabled so that I get free tuition.

Jeez. I don't know how to feel about your last sentence. I hope thats sarcasm. I would not be glad that anyone I know became disabled

I got 3 dollars right off the bat when I started and I don't think I've done anything since.

College is the biggest scam there is. You pay thousands each semester and leave college in debt just to be in level standing with everyone else. College is one of the biggest money grubbing machines there is. College is like how a high school education used to be....except you have to be in debt for the rest of your life to pay for it.

I signed up for college for dental assisting. I had to switch colleges at one point when I moved and enrolled in their DA program so that I could finish. Except none of my teachers or advisers told me their program had to be finished in four semesters, which was roughly the equivalent of 20+ credit semesters that I could not afford to pay for even with full loans because I was considered out of state. I had to drop out of the program and switched to a generic AA so that I could at least try to get something for all the debt I am in. Still no degree, over 20k in debt, and regretting college entirely lol.

The only good thing I have to look forward to is that my parents will be giving me a house in about a year or so that has no payments. So when I move there, I'll at least be able to start paying off the debt.

He get waaay lucky in that it isn't anything to debilitating, he got a good bit of damage done to his hearing. Nothing to stop him from day to day life.

Husband didn't even graduate high school and makes decent money. It's all about career choice.

Microsoft stock was already at a premium in 2004. Apple and Netflix were both low but increased exponentially after that.

If it's actually broken, I don't trust that Service Health Dashboard page to be accurate either. This is *exactly* how it felt last Friday when everything got screwy.
