You Get What You Work For

SEE HERE Thomas Sowell points out the obvious which is that all college degrees are not created equal. Is that a big surprise? It shouldn't be, but maybe to those who have never bothered to think about it, perhaps it is. I have always told my children to learn how to do something that is hard and in demand and you'll never want for a job. If it's in demand but easy then the pay will not be good although at least you'll be employed. If it is hard but not in demand, then you probably won't have a job but if you do it will likely pay fairly well. When both conditions are present you are never unemployed and you're always paid well. The other rule is that it should be something you enjoy. Nothing beats all three.
