Going to college was an act of ego. Nothing more, nothing less. Because of this ego attack. I am no employable. What I should have done instead of relaying on ego and believing I could change the world. Was go work in a productive industry. Instead of wasting time and debt on a pipe dream that was never going to happen. Than I repeated the mistake when I got my MBA. All because I was bored. Nothing more, nothing less. Now I am even more unemployable in the job market. Take my head. Think long and hard before you venture into getting a degree from college. Are you doing it because of ego or boredom?

I have come to the strong conclusion that college is a wast of resources for a lot of people. You know because people are going to college. Other jobs now that don't need a degree have gone up in pay. Like welders. They make according to Mike Rowe of Dirty Jobs up to a $100 bucks an hour. Far more than most people make out of college. There is a lot of this work that you don't need a degree for. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates them selves were college drop outs. Steve Ballmer was a grad of the Harvard Business school with an MBA and he is the one who has driven Microsoft into the ground.

Don't make my mistakes. Think long and logically about your life choices.

Fair enough. What it comes down to is wanting to do something for the right reasons, as well as knowing the right people and your stuff.
