I see this quite often, and it always paints with a broad brush. It seems like the general idea is that university is a waste of time and money. However, it depends on the degree. Somebody with a Commerce or Law degree has a much higher level of earning potential than somebody with an Arts degree, depending on what they major in. One of my friends has a BCom majoring in managment, makes 160k a year, has only been in the role for 2 years.

Speaking less anecdotally, a BA in Philsophy isn't as useless as it's made out to be here. It's true that there aren't many philosophy jobs. However, the skills gained and used translate well into a lot of other roles. Quite a few Philsophy majors end up going into major tech firms, and tend to do much better on average if they choose to go on to law school.

Hmmm, yes, but... if zombie apocalypse and both approach your fortress being chased by hoards from opposite directions and you can only save one... would you make Phillipe debate, while being chased, the pros and cons of communist society in post zombie times while Robert wires in the jacuzzi and why would that be hilarious?

Nay my friend, for you are a quality shitposter, thine commentary is worthy of admission unto a sanctuary for survival. Certain "others", however, shall be allowed entry upon admission of their faults of judgment in past discussion boards. They deny who they are... but they know.
