Its too damn expensive to get an education these days. Its great you trying to put a perspective on what its costs to get an education. These big colleges and even the coumnity ones are RAPING people.

From someone who spent $70,000 for 2 years for a degree he didn't even get to finish, I SUPPORT YOU!!!!

Damn his angled eyebrows scare the fuck out of me....thumbs up if you agree.

The only impact was making someone's job harder. Added bonus being that the person who ended up counting the bills probably has no say in tuition fees. Good stuff.

This is wonderful. I recently refused to take out any further loans for my education and still have two years left on my degree. Now I'm cutting costs everywhere just to make my payments, which are around $1,400 a month.

I hope this does bring attention to the rising cost of school, and great job for making school go right, no matter what. Non-college attendees may not have student loans or debt to pay but they also don't get the amazing life experience that is college education.

I don't want to go to college. I do and I don't. I love to learn, but I hate the pressure. I would love to make an investment in myself, but it's not an investment; biochemistry, biology, psychology, and humanities majors have a hard time finding jobs. The only way to be guaranteed a job anymore is to go into some kind of engineering program, with tons of math and physics.

I'm really starting to question whether university is worth the stress, time, and money.

So is college even

It's funny that this video is about not having enough money or struggling to pay for college and at the same time the bad they used to carry the money is Gucci which probably costed $1,000.

This student is not attending a private university. He's attending a public school. People who attend private universities expect to spend a lot of money. For those who want a quality public education, the cost is prohibitive for a quite a few.

$14,000?? That's puny. Why is he complaining when he's paying so little, even for a public school? Does he realize that most high-tier private schools make you pay triple that amount? I mean Carnegie Mellon tuition is $50,000!!!

Yes, the tuitions ARE expensive, but they, in turn, help build the school's reputation through improved education and research, which help you earn more money throughout your career! That's why state colleges can't match the rigor of private schools!
