[QUOTE="Bub, post: 394302, member: 31"] The other day I was watching the news and heard about a man who did not have a college degree but had a 6 figure income. For those of us, including me, who may not appreciate the numbers, his income was greater than $100,000. He wanted to send his kids to college and, so far, was in debt to about $150K. Lets say that his kids graduate in 4 years with a bachelors degree and some debt. So where are we. The father has a six figure income, everyone has some debt and hopefully the kids can find a job. My question then what is the value of a college degree? While I have a BS in biology, I earned my income with other degrees. Never the less, the most helpful degree for me was the liberal arts degree because I was exposed to a wide variety of areas that I still value. You have to respect someone who is making a 6 figure income and wants to send his kids to college. However, you also have to ask if this is really the best financial decision. [/QUOTE]
