Let’s say a year of college costs $30k for tuition. Let’s also say after year 1 you could make $35k/yr in a very entry level job, and that goes up $15k/yr. The true cost of the final 3 years of your degree is $90k tuition + $150k lost wages + 3 yrs work experience + interest.

I think you should perhaps look for some empiricics here, You’re positing close to a fifty percent increase in wage after one year. That’s simply not realistic.
