If I could go back and talk sense to myself I'd tell 18yo me to become a
commercial electrician. Where I work we pay outrageous money to the guys who
wire our machine rooms. One guy we use a lot is about 45, owns his own outfit
with I think 3 or 4 trucks, he built it up over about 10 years from just doing
his own thing to where he is now. He doesn't want/need to grow and plans to
retire in about 10 years, sell the business for a million or more and hunt full
time...

Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT Student Loans, was Stealers
You know the government is always looking for the next\new way to bind
people to the system and make them tax paying wage slaves. Student loans
and the college requirement is just the latest in a long line of scandalous
rip offs.
I used to tell young men to join the military, no more. Now I suggest trade
school, welders, auto mechanics, plumbers, a.c. tech's. All great paying
jobs where they can remain debt free and live within their means.
All in all, if my job at the University of Florida was not paying for
school, I would not be attending.
Take the Red pill and join the masculine side. It is not for everyone, but
apparently from what I read in these emails, most of you men are already
part\mostly there.

True that. Student loans are not discharged by bankruptcy. Also, speaking
from firsthand experience (idiot grandson#2) these loans are handed out
with no regard for scholastic ability or likelihood of repayment. The
interest rates are obscene (3.76-6.31%) for today's environment. And these
loans are guaranteed by the government (that's us) so the lenders can't
lose, just like the home loans underwritten by Fannie May and Freddie Mac
or bundled and sold. Is this a big and growing problem? Just look at the
data:

I haven't been a student in a civilian university since the 80s so I don't
really know what goes on there. But it's easy to conclude from many, many
reports that the liberal arts colleges have become the cesspool of higher
education.
