College Degree Or No

We always have threads on here asking what job you have that has allowed you to own a Camaro

well the question i want to know is if you own a camaro do you have a college degree or not

i have an associates degree in automotive systems technology but it has nothing to do with the job i have right now

So I'll assume then the college automotive technology degree would'nt have allowed you to own a Gen5.........or am I missing something? I've concluded that ones educational background really has nothing to do with a automotive purchase. lol

I have a master's degree in Sociology/Child & Family Studies. Hubby has a bachelor's degree in Psychology. We would have both made much better $ in other fields but we have helped a lot of people and in the end we both have Camaros. That is a pretty good deal.

I went two years for mechanical engineering, then realized i never want to work for someone else anyway, so i dropped out and started my own business.

no college here. didn't even finish HS. but If I had to guess I'd say my income puts me in the range of somebody with a BS degree.

Yes. Though for me, it's not about the money. Which is good because at the moment I am getting very little of it.

No college degree, did it Kanye West style. Funny thing is I make more money than most people do with one. It's not what you know, it's who you know.

When I finally graduated with my Doctorate, I was told that my new degree and $5 would buy me a cup of coffee at any Starbucks in America. It doesn't mean a thing.

..........as you age you'll come to realize that, what ..........one might, could have or should have done doesn't mean a thing. Enjoy what you have, never envy anyone..............and simply be grateful everyday for waking up on this side of the lawn. The rest will work itself out accordingly and there is no such thing as luck..
