One four year degree. Got a great job in the bay area this year. Making a lot of $$ but renting.
The other a certificate, not even a two year degree. Making an equal amount of $$ in SD, able to buy a house which the other kid can’t do. Will the 4 year degree win out? No doubt in the long run. But for now, neck in neck, both working office jobs for great corporations, both hard working, both going for the gold.
Let’s not be doom-n-gloomers. Is the world as it was 50 years ago? of course not. But human nature being what it is, there will always be lazy folks and those that will do whatever it takes to be successful. Degree or not.

ok. I was probably overreacting to all the cheerleaders, praise and optimism in my usually foolish way. but still. The Clash song would be different.
