Roughly 70% of Millenials don't have any degrees, I'm seeing figures as high as 81% without.

Why aren't degrees becoming more valuable then?
>>
>>128719007
That statistic cannot be accurate

>>128719090
>According to census data, 209.3 million people in the United States are 25 years old or older, and 66.9 million have a bachelor’s degree or higher (such as a master’s, professional or doctoral degree). That means about 68 percent of them do not have a bachelor’s degree.

Interesting dynamic at work

More Millenials have Bachelor's degrees than previous generations, but it's still 70% without. More interesting, more millenials don't have high school degrees than previous generations.

More useful and you don't have the debts

Things society requires like engineering, computer science and business degrees will get you a good job. Most college graduates don't get a good job and are in huge debt.

You can keep on studying your whole life in your free time while you build experience during the day. You don't need the government to educate yourself.

I have a PhD in medicine and opened a liquor store instead of opening a practice. I've also been giving away product on 4chan for years. Nearly everyone I've ever hired had a BA/BS as a minimum educational credential. Degrees are worthless in the wake of H1B and H2B visa programs, and outsourcing. I pity the next generation, thankfully my sons will inherit my business, and my rental properties. They and their children will know financial independence.

Women's studies.
>Roughly 70% of Millenials don't have any degrees,
A fuck load of cucks, niggers, and spics are using government subsidies to get worthless degrees.
Which in tern makes it more expensive for those not on government money to get a degree or certification with some kind of worth. With incredibly high risk to them selves to get an education, many simply avoid the debt.

1st year of college they try to force all first years to live in the dorms. So instead of paying $14,000 for a year at their own state college they pay about $28,000 a year for the first year.
Avoid that its still $14,000 for the first two years, as your state college will force you to take unrelated courses to your major to milk you for more money. I payed $500 for lesson an online lesson how not to rape women at CSU, I'm NOT fucking kidding. They made me retake high school math even though I was a fucking A math student. THEY WANT TO MILK YOU AS LONG AS THEY FUCKING CAN.

I paid off 100% of my student loans in the first 5 years of business. I thought about opening my own practice after residency but after a substantial amount of research I discovered it would be easier to sell wine/liquor than treating illness. Factually speaking in the first year alone I made $140,000 profit. Can't think of another business which is instantaneously profitable except for drug dealing.

Millenial here (unfortunately, I hate my generation). Decided to skip out on going to college and instead went right to work (I also dropped out of my last year of high school and got my GED instead, mostly because I hated my teachers and fellow students). So by the time most of my peers would be graduating college/university I already had about 5 years actual work experience and had made quite a few contacts in different industries. I have no problems getting a job anymore.

There definitely feels like there is an active effort in place to make those most likely to earn a college degree from wanting to get one (learning a trade, etc.)

Because the average graduate now is a sjw with a degree in gender studies or philosophy.

>>128719090
I can only say this for germany, but current students either take very very long to get a degree or drop out when it becomes slightly hard due to society telling them "do whatever you want" and society being overprotective.
Due to this they never had to deal with challenge or a situation where they had to work and manage things on their own to accomplish something and the only thing they know is that they can just bail out whenever they want.

A big majority in my year are in their late 20s since they switched subjects several times and the average age when people get their degree is 26. And that is for a BSc degree, which only takes 3 years.

They are valuable. Regardless of /pol/'s "underwater basket weaving" memes, lifetime earning potential of a degree holder vs a HS diploma is simply not comparable and even crazy expensive colleges will pay dividends over a lifetime.

http://study.com/articles/How_Much_More_Do_College_Graduates_Earn_Than_Non-College_Graduates.html

You are also simply locked out of a lot of jobs without a degree--employers will simply throw your resume in the garbage if you don't have an undergraduate education at the least. Not saying this is necessarily a good thing, but it's simply reality.

For the record, I'm not suggesting "going to college magically makes you more money with zero effort", but the numbers prove /pol/ wrong, plain and simple. For all your impressionable young /pol/ fags out there, don't buy into "le college jew XD XD" meme, they are just trying to suck you down into their NEET/manual labor black hole of faggotry (there's nothing inherently wrong with manual labor, but most of us arent interested in working next to teenagers for our entire lives).
