The average 18-year-old entering college has no idea what $70k a year is. Many of them have no idea what occupation to pursue, or if it even suits them.

Many folks rou the kids taking on too much student debt, but I bet there are thousands more kids, like me, that didn't go to the prestigious school because there was no way I could fathom paying $200k (a while ago) in college tuition.




it's almost like it should be a filter in job interviews. anyone that takes on that amount of debt at such a young age is clearly unsuitable
