I got lucky and my parents were able to sell their company and pay it down. Besides social education and fun, the people only two things I got out of it were an understanding of mathematical and a math prof telling me to learn to program which I did by myself in a bookstore.

Other than that, it was pretty much a waste of 4 years and a lot of money. So for those contemplating it... You better think long and hard about whether you want to be a slave to those 4 years of drinking, partying, and cramming then forgetting crap that is mostly useless.

It's not even close unless it's a top 20 school, then the connections/relationships are worth it.

I have a contrarian opinion: All the top 100 colleges are underpriced — especially if you play the games to get discounts (aka “student aid” and scholarships).

The anti-college narrative is being led by people with something to sell us, btw. Those people are all still sending their kids to elite schools and doing whack a doodle stuff to get them in.

I’ll have enough money to send my kids to college, sure, but where’s the benefit to me from selling this narrative? If anything I’m just shooting my self in the foot.

Of course. I bring that up not as a personal attack — but I think the actions of those people originally selling the idea are telling as we all consider whether we agree with it or not.

I think there are much better teachers on YouTube than University of Oregon. That's where my perspective comes from.
