The College Bubble Video

Is college really worth it? Ask the National Inflation Association. I know it's really long, but I really recommend the video.

  1. My own experiences caused me to shun college. Unless you are planning on a professional carrier like Dr. or Lawyer, it is a terrible investment of time and money.

  2. Very true, and I think that this video made the oft ignored point about opportunity cost of going to college (the income that is lost by going to college instead of working full time).

  3. I don't have a problem with people who want to further their education. I do have a problem with these people demanding that I pay the cost of that further education.

  4. And trying to artificially lower the price is exactly what is driving up the price. It was the same thing with housing: unintended consequences.
