I for one am not chasing money, but I do want to make sure that if I take on the equivalent of a mortgage in the Midwest, that I will be able to service my debts.

BTW, if I followed the motto repeated many times the result woud be, “Do what you love and end up a divorced ski bum.” =)

Another thread I just read raises an interesting question. Is there an education bubble? Has easy credit for education made higher education a less lucrative investment?

It seems that education costs have risen exponentially as private credit has pumped up the cost of a degree. The final result, at least for a bachelors degree, is lower earning power than the degree had 20 years ago.

From an investors point of view, is education still a BUY even at costs upwards of 150k in tuition?
