Yeah, the people that went into debt for a piece of paper, they are the smart ones.

YT bro isn’t any better, but the lemmings below him are as stupid, just in different ways.

Lol mate. It's not necessarily the education content.

Uni teaches you to critically think and problem solve. The uneducated think it's sitting there learning facts and figures. No one can know everything, the abilities taught at higher education are a basis for life long learning and skills in there own right.

So yes, I went into debt for a "piece of paper". That piece of paper was a requirement for career progression in my industry which I do not regret.

I'm not disputing that some people waste money on higher education that doesn't pay off. There's always going to be a spectrum of people that waste time doing degrees that aren't economic to do.

My point is that paying for higher education is about more than learning facts and figures.

For me, it was definately the right choice.
