I have a question. With a college tuition you wouldn't have to pay it all at once or before that year of graduation you can still be paying the tuition when your career has started?
A college graduate may make a million dollars more in his or her lifetime with a degree--but you don't get that million right after you graduate. What is the PRESENT VALUE of a million spread out over 40 years or more? Probably around $300,000. It's like the lottery--getting a check for $50,000 a year for 20 years is worth LESS than getting a million all at once.
This is so true. We go to college with hopes of graduating and making a decent living only to find ourselves running in place. We go to college to get a nice job and paycheck only to hand it back to the college for the rest of our lives.
no wonder so many ppl dont go to school
