Slingshotpost education work landscape is so f***ed I legit wouldn’t advise anyone to go to college if they have to take out any type of loan
trade school the only hope kids got left if they dont get scholarships. Then starting your own business from that trade after you get the hang of how the business works
Terrible advice
I went to trade school (HVAC) and took out a loan to open up a cafe. I had to close it after 8 months.

I think it’s just that pushing trade school as a one size fits all path to making money could be perilous, as it was for coders. There’s a cap on how many people we need for both paths, and once we’re past that cap that experience decreases in value drastically

XavierManeThis bro, omfg.
If it aint STEM, Law, or Medical, them other majors are an active scam. A business degree might as well be toilet paper.

Sir Realhow are these averages being calculated? Presumably this is primarily based around rather HCOL areas cuz I was making like 35k starting in 2018 and I’m now making 75k and I have a senior position
My first job out of college back in 2010 I started at $13.25 an hour. The next year I got a 10 cent raise lol.
Feb 13Feel like 2018 was like, the last normal time to graduate high school
