So, are you saying some or many college graduates are in the that situation now? If so, why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subject I was referring to wasn't necessarily about them. But lets make it that for a second. Also its about student loan forgiveness. Not necessarily grads. But I will concede there are probably more grads than not if I had to guess. I am. Law of large numbers would say that there are at least some that are in a dire situation, regardless of their student loan forgiveness. As to why, how does it usually happen? Pick your poison. Fired, downsized, sick, hurt, bills compound. Lack of safety net to fall into. Cycle perpetuates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want to have the full school experience of no responsibilities other than school work. But then they drown themselves in debt, where if the worked, they could lessen that by mass quantities. mspart Do you feel your experience with recent college students or grads represents even a significant portion of the total in that cohort? If so, what is the size of that portion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offthemat Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I know a fellow who graduated with a geology degree, but had poor grades and never was able to gain employment in his field. He made a career in repairing brick work. He also tried to make a little money playing music with only slightly better results than geology. He paid all his bills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointing out how you are triggered by that. If that makes me 'psycho-babbly' so you can remain ignorant. I guess that's my cross to bear. Glad your opinions are dying. Can't happen soon enough. We'll all be better off. Smarter too. Again. Do something instead of talking about it. You’re a “say gooder”, nothing more. I on the other hand will continue to actually help others which is what really matters. Carry on with your useless babble while doing nothing. Oh and bear that cross too. Bahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahahha. Edited February 27 by JimmyBT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyBT Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 (edited) I still can’t get over how the educated “smart” people need the uneducated “stupid” people to bail them out. or maybe it’s the educated “smarter people that figured it out” that should bail them out huh? Quit whining and figure it out. You’re supposed to be smart Edited February 27 by JimmyBT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope...always have to find something to be a victim of...and blame others for their hard work...call them names and say they have no empathy. It has always amazed me how people like that get anywhere in life. They have to be completely miserable people always looking for the boogeyman in everything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offthemat Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 It’s probably difficult for some of us flawed folks to understand how impossible it is for the perfect people to participate in, or enable, such an imperfect system. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
