One of the major problems I see with the younger generations is that even though many of them will place blame on the boomers for many of their financial issues (correctly), many of them will still somehow think that going to college was worth it in spite of the crippling debt and wasted years on a degree that gets them no job.

It's okay, you can admit it was the wrong decision. The boomers led you astray there, so you don't have to defend that choice. You were lied to about that too.

Making a bad choice that is not entirely your fault does not mean the choice was not bad. It is just that you were not making decisions based on correct information. The conclusion you should gather from that is not to double down and claim that you made the right choice and say that others are just jealous, but rather to use the information you now have to help others not repeat the same mistakes.

Taking the double down option just shows that you are no wiser in spite of the experience.

@houseoftolstoy NOW YOU SHOULD BE TERRIFIED
THAT NO-ONE CARES YOU'RE GONE
IN SPITE OF THE MERCY YOU HAVE TAKEN FOR YOUR OWN
FOR ALL OF THE LIES YOU'VE TOLD
LET IT ALL UNFOLD
INSIDE YOUR CRYSTAL WALLS

YEAH YOU SHOULD BE TERRIFIED


Yeah it was obviously a scam before I even started, that's why I have no regret for never finishing.

6 years for my master's degree that I'll never get back. My biggest mistake in life. I wish I had become a diesel mechanic in the late 90s when I got out of the army. I would be rich like a boomer right now.
