y the way Nassua, Suffolk Police officers in New York with overtime were doing 150 a year. So much for needing a college degree.
Big deal. Dock workers can make that much too. And subway token collectors make about $70k. And strippers probably do about a few hundred/night. What's your point?
Personally I don't have an issue with a cop making $150k/year. Folks like cops put there life on their line. I surely wouldn't want to do that personally.
If you don't want a college degree, sure go right ahead. I would say college gets you in as much as opening more doors. What one does thereafter is completely up to that person. Sure, if you think you're bill gates, you don't need to go to college. The problem is most people are average. They aren't the type that can go off and do whatever and do well, because they are just that AVERAGE. Hhow many americans are really bill gates? Wishful thinking at best. Folks want to skip school and be a moron and close doors that possibly would have been open for them because they were lazy or don't want to try, well that's there choice. But then don't complain about doing lowly work that gets outsourced or how things aren't "affordable.
