Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4255273, member: 405"] I hate to break it to you, but the "free education" angle stopped being the end game about 10-15 years ago, when all these graduates couldn't get paying jobs better than service industry jobs, and couldn't afford their $100-200K college debt - it's like not having a real career yet, and having to pay a mortgage when it's hard to even find a decent job or an affordable place to live. That's why entrepreneurship is taking over. College is not an economically good investment. If you're paying your kid's way through a private school, buy them a house instead, and send them to a community college. Seriously. It's a way better investment. [/QUOTE]
