When our boys were growing up I constantly told them if you go to college you'd better plan on getting a "REAL" degree not some bullsh!t one, like some of the ones you just named. I said, if you think we're spending 40k to send you to college so you can graduate with a degree in the "History of polka dots" your going to find yourself paying for your own education!

Our oldest just graduated in Engineering and just started his first job today. Our other one, is going into a trade. He'll probably make more money that all of us.

Good for him. I hope he enjoys his job.

Mine actually got a job in his field already. When he was four, he told my wife he wanted to work at NASA and build rockets. He works at NASA for a contractor and does command and control of a satellite.

His job is sort of an internship, but they have him till he graduates and I assume will hire him full time if they like him. The job includes benefits. He just got his first education reimbursement check last Friday.
