re: If you were in college today what would you study

I was literally going to respond to him "My man NIH mocks these posts, but I have a number of union plumber clients doing better than a lot of dudes with college degrees."

Michigan State has this absurd degree for packaging engineering. But, you don't have to be typical math smart for it. Everyone I know who went through it does well. I should have gone to MSU, got that, and banged 8.5s.

Industrial design.

Yeah I’d say about .0001% of ac repairmen retire at 40 with millions

Social Media Management, and minor in Video Production and Photography

I know several college coeds who have been/are models who could make a billion dollars if they only realized how to capitalize on what they have. A couple of them have relatively tame Twitters/Instagrams, one with over a hundred thousand followers, but need to monetize.

I went to LSU, graduated with a 2.04 in History with minors in Sociology and Afr Am studies.
Took 6 years.

I’d do it all over in a heartbeat.

Carpentry

Unless I wanted to be a doctor or lawyer or something similar, or had high level family connections that would guarantee a high paying job upon graduation, I’d take that 100 grand and open a skilled trade business instead. Those will be the last jobs automated, and will be in demand forever.

The ROI on college isn’t there anymore for most people in most majors.
